88-year-old walks 10 km daily to visit wife's grave
Almost every day since his wife passed away 10 months ago, an 88 year-old man from Dazhou city of Sichuan province has walked 10 km to visit his wife’s tomb on a mountain, Chengdu Business Daily reported.
Jiang Tengzhi takes food with him to "share" with his wife, placing a portion in a bowl for her. He talks to the tomb about their children’s visits, or the latest happenings in the family. He also sings and dances at the tomb, planting flowers and burning incense to honor his wife. Jiang said he wishes to rest next to her.
A resident at the foot of the mountain said Jiang typically walks to the mountain. When he is carrying too much, he hires a motorcycle for five yuan to take him there.
