Little Lorenzo's funeral: Nurri silently embraces his family.

The slow tolling of the bell announces the coffin's arrival in the churchyard of San Michele Arcangelo in Nurri. Behind, the silent procession.

An entire town stands with the parents of Lorenzo Spano, who died at the age of three and a half on Sunday afternoon after being crushed by his father's tractor. A tragedy that occurred in the countryside of central Sarcidano, and he has been dealing with the pain for two days.

The funeral is today, with words spoken from the pulpit that will attempt to soothe wounds of the soul that are difficult to heal.

Leaning against the walls, around the church, were bunches of white flowers. Like the coffin holding Lorenzo's body. And the balloons that rose into the sky after the service.
