JANUARY Edition <strong>2022</strong><br />
We want to hear from you info@motomedia.co.za<br />

A young motorcyclist/ musician was<br />
asked by a funeral director to play at a<br />
graveside service for a homeless man.<br />
He had no family or friends, so the<br />
service was to be at a pauper’s<br />
cemetery out in the sticks.<br />
As he was not familiar with the<br />
backwoods, and got lost.<br />
Being a somewhat typical man, he<br />
didn’t stop for directions.<br />
He finally arrived an hour late and saw<br />
the funeral guy had already gone and<br />
the hearse was nowhere in sight.<br />
There were only the diggers and crew<br />
left and they were eating lunch.<br />
The muso felt bad and apologized to<br />
the men for being late.<br />
He went to the side of the grave and<br />
looked down and didn’t know what else<br />
to do, so he started to play.<br />
IN THIS ISSUE...<br />
The workers put down their lunches and<br />
began to gather around. He played his<br />
heart and soul out for this man with no<br />
family and friends.<br />
He played like he’d never played before<br />
for this homeless man. And as he<br />
played “Amazing Grace”, the workers<br />
began to weep.<br />
They wept, he wept, everyone wept<br />
together.<br />
When he finished, he packed up his<br />
Accordion and started for the bike.<br />
Though his head was hung low, his<br />
heart was full.<br />
As he climbed aboard and fastened his<br />
helmet, he heard one of the workers<br />
say, “I never seen anything like that<br />
before, and I’ve been putting in septic<br />
tanks for twenty years.”<br />
Apparently, he’s still lost....<br />
