Faulkner’s “A Rose for Emily”
"WHEN Miss Emily Grierson died, our whole town went to her funeral: the men through a sort of respectful affection for a fallen monument, the women mostly out of curiosity to see the inside of her house, which no one save an old man-servant--a combined gardener and cook--had seen in at least ten years." https://americanliterature.com/author/william-faulkner/short-story/a-rose-for-emily
