Thousands of people in Dongtou, a village in Changzhou, Jiangsu province, got up early on March 3 to bid 85-year-old Xu Qiaozhen a final farewell.
They stood silently on both sides of the main road, holding flowers, some with tears in their eyes.
Xu, the former Party chief of the village's Diaoqiao Road community, was loved by almost everyone.
