This is really touching... You must read it all

 

 



As a bagpiper, I play at many venues. Recently I was asked by a funeraldirector to play at a graveside service for a homeless man. 

He had no family or friends, so the service wasto be at a small council cemetery North of Glasgow.


As I was not familiar with the back roads, I gotlost and, being a typical man, I didn't stop for directions. I finallyarrived an hour late and saw the funeral guy had evidently gone and thehearse was nowhere in sight. There were only the diggers and crew left andthey were eating lunch.

I felt embarrassed and apologized to the men forbeing late. I went to the side of the grave and looked down and couldbarely see a vault lid. I didn't know what else to do, so I started toplay.
 
The workers put down their lunches and began togather around. I played out my heart and soul for this man with no familyand friends.  I played like I've never played before for thishomeless man. And as I played ' Amazing Grace ,' the workers began toweep. They wept, I wept, we all wept together. When I finished I packed upmy bagpipes and started for my car. Though my head hung low, my heart wasfull.
 
As I opened the door to my car, I heard one of theworkers say, "I never seen nothin' like that before and I've beenputting in septic tanks for twenty years."

Apparently I'm still lost....
