” The Red Shelby was decorated with ‘Dan and Wendy’ inside a heart on the rear window. ‘Just Married’ on the back bumper, and several blue, ...ink, and white paper streamers attached to the car.“Was this you’re doing?” Dan pretended to be mad at his son.“Jake and I did it along with Scott and Ben.”“Thank you, everyone, it was greatly appreciated,” he shook their hands.“Now you two take good care of each other. Tina and I will be waiting in bed when you return to hear all about the juicy details.”. “We do, don’t we!” I said. “Danielle?” “Alex?” “I… I was wondering if…” Just as I thought he was going to say something significant, two girls came in and sat at a nearby table.

I could dig the turf up, pour in the ashes, and push the turf back down. In a few days nobody would ever be able to tell what I had done. It’s not like we were putting up a memorial or changing.
