It has been years since I witnessed a child's funeral but there were many in those days. Up to my teens I witnessed them but nowadays thanks to improvement in child care there are not many. The first I saw was when I lost my nephew a six month old baby. I was just a kid then. I remember this classmate. We were acting in a play and that play was to be enacted after the holidays but we had a few practices before. She died during those holidays. I got to act with another classmate but it was not the same.

That is very sad. I only witnessed one so far. He was only 16 when he got hit by a car.
