Joke of the day for January 15

A man placed some carnations on the grave of his departed mother and headed back to his car. His attention was diverted to man kneeling at a grave headstone who was praying with profound intensity and repeating “Why did you have to die?” “Why did you have to die?”

The first man approached and said “Sir, I don’t wish to interfere with your moment of grief, but this demonstration of pain is more than I have ever seen before. Whom do you mourn so deeply? A child? A caring parent? A close sibling?”

The mourner took a moment to collect his thoughts, then replied “My wife’s first husband.”
