As he drove away from the shop, he was feeling very good. He caught a light about two blocks from the shop. As he waited at the light, he saw the young boy walking down the sidewalk.

He could see the young man turn there by gate and walk along the fence.The light changed, and John slowly crossed the crossing. He pulled over and on an impulse（冲动之下）got out and began to follow the boy down the fence line. John was on the sidewalk, thirty or forty steps behind the boy, who walked inside the cemetery fence.

Why didnt I tell you one more time? Jesus, please, find my mommy. Tell my Mommy I love her.John turned, tears in his eyes, and walked back to his car.
