Showing Respect

I don't play golf but 3 of my friends do. I went with them just to get out of the house on a nice day. They invited an older man whom I did not know. They all played and I kept score. We were near a highway and the older gentleman was about to tee off when a funeral procession passed by. The older man stopped, put his club down, took off his hat and bowed his head. We all noticed that and did likewise. The funeral procession passed and he took his stance when I told him that was a nice, respectful thing he just did. He looked at me and said, "It was the least I could do. She was a good wife for 47 years".
