Dan came out and looked at us sadly. “I’m sorry guys,” he told us, “he passed away in his sleep. There’s nothing they can do.”There were n... hysterics from Caity like when our parents died. She was ten now (going on twenty). She had tears in her eyes, but there were no wails of despair. I closed the distance between us and we hugged. For me, I wasn’t quite sure how I felt. Numb, maybe? You don’t find a dead body every day. The relationship between Grandpa and me had been a little odd because it. The pastor would be there promptly at 4:00pm to pray, and then the casket would be opened.Guests were slowly filing in and at about 3:55pm, Pastor Kent arrived and came to greet Mrs. Blanchard and Kara. He did not extend his hand to me, but I put out my own and he took it with a look of disdain. I smiled inwardly that I’d made him uncomfortable, and then rebuked myself for thinking that way at this time. It wasn’t a contest, it was an important event for Kara and her mom, and I was going to. Justin pulled her close to him and wrapped his arm around her. “You’re the most amazing guy I’ve ever met and I don’t wanna lose you!” Justin shifted his position and wrapped both of his arms around her and kissed her tears away.“You won’t lose me. Even when I’m away at school, I’ll always talk to you and right now I’m working something out with my parents so I can maybe fly home again in March to visit for a week during Spring Break. Alex, no matter what, I’ll always be there for you,”. She a reddish color. I named her Ginger. My dad made sure I would have to do everything to care for her; feed, water, walk her, and clean up after her. Ginger was my dog I took care of her and because of that, she waited for me to come home from school each day, she slept in my room. I let her sleep on my bed with me. When she was about 2 were out for a walk and I ran into Butch. He was out walking his dog too. His dog kept smelling around Ginger's backside. She seemed shy about that. .
