Couple get married at 7-year-old son’s funeral
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/32736308...nderful_world/
Quote:
BUFFALO, N.Y. - The parents of a 7-year-old boy who died after an upstate New York car crash have fulfilled his wish that they get married, and they did it at the child's funeral.
Amilcar Hill and Rahwa Ghirmatizion got married during Monday's funeral service in Buffalo for their son, Asa Hill. Asa died a day after his grandfather's car was involved a chain-reaction highway crash last week.
Hundreds of people packed the church for Asa's funeral. The couple surprised attendees by getting married, which the parents say their son had been asking them to do.
Amilcar Hill says Asa's organs were being donated to save other young lives.

Their anniversary will always be bittersweet for them

A bit off topic for the OP...but.....

I can't tell who is the bride and who is the groom....  Perhaps she wouldn't marry him because he insisted that she take his name.......
But if it were the other way around, I'd jump at the chance to get rid of that name.  ....

I dont get why they waited till the child was dead to do it. But as someone else said, to each his own.

If they really wanted to fulfill his wish as they say why didnt they do it while he was alive to see it? I mean really they had 7 years...I think its kinda messed up myself but I guess people thought it was sweet(which I can kinda see but still creepy)
