The thick summer air was weighted with sorrow and old memories as the families congregated. Lenny, the prosperous sports agent, stood with his elegant wife Roxanne and their three well-dressed children. A few steps away, Eric, who'd built a business from lawn furniture, shifted his weight beside Sally as she cradled their infant. Kurt, a dedicated homemaker, kept a protective hand on his pregnant wife Deanne's back, while Marcus propped himself against an oak tree, the picture of relaxed indifference. Rob maintained a stoic silence next to his wife Gloria. The group formed a living tapestry of shared history and fresh grief, all waiting for the memorial service to begin.
