A son-is a son-with a heart

 The Italian Tomato Garden

An old Italian man lived alone in the country. He wanted to dig his tomato garden, but it was very hard work as the ground was hard. His only son, Vincent, who used to help him, was in prison. The old man wrote a letter to his son and described his predicament.

I am feeling sad because it looks like I won’t be able to plant my tomato garden this year. I’m just getting too old to be digging up a garden plot.If you were here my troubles would be over. I know you would dig the plot for me.” –Love Dad

A few days later he received a letter from his son.

Please don’t dig up that garden. That’s where I buried the Bodies.” –Love Vinnie

At 4 a.m. the next morning, FBI agents and local police arrived and dug up the entire area without finding any bodies. They apologized to the old man and left. That same day the old man received another letter from his son.

Dear Dad,

You should now be able to go ahead and plant the tomatoes. It was the best I could do under the circumstances.” –Love Vinnie
