He has one final task before his 16-mile car trip. "This was Emmett's bush," says the 89-year-old WWII veteran hunched over a tomato plant and reaching for the red fruit. "See all the 'matoes' he's going to have." A friendship that went from backyard to viral video is about to add a new chapter. It's been two weeks since Emmett Rychner, the 3-year-old next door, moved with his family to a house at the edge of a Rice County cornfield. Erling tears up thinking about it. "It's kind of lonely out here sometimes you know," he says.
