Heartbreaking images show a woman knelt at her fiance’s grave wearing her wedding dress three weeks after he was shot dead by a man he was selling an Xbox console to.
This was supposed to be the happiest weekend of 22-year-old Sara Baluch’s life, the weekend she married 24-year-old Mohammad Sharifi.
However, on Sunday, the love of her life was laid to rest outside Nashville, Tennessee.
The sad moment at Harpeth Hills Memory Gardens captured in intimate photographs by Chattanooga’s Times Free Press.
Baluch sobbed as she knelt in the grass,surrounded by loved ones who took turns reciting prayers and reading from the Quran.
‘We were supposed to be together,’ Baluch said as tears streamed down her face.
‘I’m so sorry, Mohammad. I’m so sorry. So sorry.’
As they prepared to leave Baluch’s mother Sona replaced her daughter’s white wedding veil with a black one.
“We were so happy,’ the 22-year-old said. ‘I want to be with him. Why do I have to wait?’
Baluch said that in the two weeks since Sharifi’s passing, he’s come to visit her in her dreams.
‘He won’t talk to me. He just comes to me and he holds me. That’s all he does,’ she said.
‘I’m happy. I’m so grateful. That’s the closest thing I’ve been getting to holding him. But I want to ask him: “Are you okay?”‘
