Amilcar Hill and Rahwa Ghirmatizion marry during son's funeral.
The parents of 7-year old Asa Hill were united in misery as well as joy as they said their last goodbyes to their son at his funeral last Monday, Sept. 7.
He was killed in a six-car crash in upstate New York. His grandfather and brother were also injured, but they survived the tragic accident. The parents, Amilcar Hill and Rahwa Ghirmatizion, thought that in a twist of love they’d marry during the conclusion of their son’s funeral.
He had often wished that they would get married and their marriage is the last extraordinary expression of love they will give their child. Watch the moving homegoing wedding here:

I feel ya! That’s just embarrassing! I doubt seriously the marriage will weather the test of time if it took a tragic accident to convince them to wed. The birth of their son should have been the glue binding them in marriage, not his death!
