One of the Best Things About a Small Town
Maybe not all small towns, but at least the one I grew up in: When a funeral procession is driving down the road, be it highway or country road, the other vehicles pull over to the side of the road to pay their respects. Well, most of them do. I found this very comforting when my dad died, and had forgotten about it until today when I saw it happen again for Hubert's funeral.

There is a joke here in the South. They will pull over for a funeral, but God forbid you are in an ambulance and need to get to the hospital!

No kidding. I guess you have to jump into a hearse if you're really in a hurry!
