The loss of a loved one’s life is not easy to grieve from, especially in the case of a close family member.
But, occasionally, we find their photographs or objects that bring back memories.
A man tweeted about a wonderful surprise he had received. Twitter user @TeacherUfo had been bored at home and thought of researching his parents’ house in Google Earth.
As the map was loading, the student was able to walk to the side of the road near his parents’ house and discovered his father, who had died seven years ago, in the vicinity of the home. Further along the street, the driver saw his mother returning to her house after what appeared to be a trip to the grocery store.
コロナでやる事ないからGoogleEarthで実家見に行ったら7年前に死んだ親父が写ってた。その先に人が居たから見に行ったら母ちゃんだった。一服しながら奥さんの帰りを待ってたんだな。無口だけど優しい親父だった。このままこの場所の写真更新しないで欲しいな。 pic.twitter.com/PXxBICAxmz
