Lost aunt during the pandemic: – The tribute goes viral

Due to closure and strict coronary restrictions, Australian sheep farmer Ben Jackson did not say goodbye to a person he was very fond of.

When his aunt Debby died of cancer after two years of fighting, Jackson was 400 kilometers away, in New South Wales.

Lockdown

Residents of the Australian state of New South Wales must remain at home due to strict coronary restrictions.

There is currently a lockdown in Greater Sydney, in addition to the Blue Mountains and the city of Wollongog in New South Wales – which will last until the end of September at the earliest, according to the government. websites.

Regionally in New South Wales, the stay-at-home order will last until September 10 at the earliest.

Because Jackson has to stay home, he was not allowed to attend Auntie’s funeral either. He therefore chose to show his love in a different way. This writes NBC.

– Went viral

Jackson decidedly strewn the feed for the sheep in a certain pattern, and when he released the herd, hundreds of sheep flowed into the garden and formed a heart, the channel writes.

The whole thing was captured on video by a drone, and has since gone viral online.

– It was not possible for me to go there to see her, say have it, or to go to the funeral. I felt hopeless, helpless. “I did not know what to do,” Jackson said BBC.

– Would be proud

The video was also played at the aunt’s funeral, and the choice of song was not random either. The song that was played was “Bridge over Troubled Water” by Simon & Garfunkel – which was one of the aunt’s favorite songs.

Jackson says his aunt would have liked the video to be shown on Australian TV in addition to being shared by many on social media.

– She would be proud to see so many smiles and appreciate the heart I made for her. It’s love. Love is sensational, says Jackson.
