The Cross Gardener by Jason F. Wright

 A friend of mine gave me this book to read.  She is from Australia, isn't a reader, but loved this book.  So I gave it a try.  It is a bout this man who loses his wife and unborn child in a car crash.  To help with his depression and loss, he goes daily to the crosses on the side of the road.  And that is where he meets "The cross gardener". 
The relationship between these 2 men is unique.  They both teach each other and help with reality.  I cried at the end when the true identity of the cross gardener is identified.
