Chapter 429: Condolences

A coworker Robert was particularly close to spoke next of his intelligence, work ethic, and sense of humor. Those two had hung out a lot working at the construction firm but even more since they both retired.

He had been quite upset when Robert needed to be moved to the care facility. Since he was getting on in years too, it was difficult for him to go visit but they video chatted whenever his friend was lucid and could remember him.

After he sat down, it was Violet's turn. Even though black wasn't technically required at funerals, she had worn a simple black dress and tied her hair up with a black ribbon for the occasion. Keeley was wearing black too since it matched the color of her despair.

"Hello, everyone. I'm Violet and I wanted to speak today so I could tell my grandpa I loved him one last time. We were very close. He never missed a single one of my concerts or recitals before he was too sick to drive on his own."
