"What?" Marshall asked his wife, "Did we just hear Lloyd propose to Meghan, and she accepted?"

"I'm just as shocked as you!" Danielle laughed at the sight of her brother proposing to her sister-in-law and best friend.

A happy and sad occasion as mixed thoughts spread through the guests.

Two couples, not surprised. They were Bradford and Camilla, as well as Erica and Peter.

"Congratulations you two," Bradford and Camilla said as they walked up to and hugged Meghan while shaking Lloyd's hand.

"Thanks mom, thanks dad," Meghan said, grinning like a Cheshire cat who just had her fill of milk.

Marshall then walked up to them with Danielle. "Wow, my best friend, jeez squirt," he poked fun at her and laughing.

"Bro, man, this is awesome. Congratulations you guys," he said, giving Lloyd a manly embrace.

"Jeez, now if only you could have said that so nicely to me," Meghan jested back.

The banter between the siblings went on for a short while longer.

"Seriously, we're super happy for you

    "Dearly beloved," the minister began, "we are gathered here today, to commemorate the sanctity of life. The life of one such, Franklin Joseph Hemingway. He was a father, son, brother, uncle, cousin and friend." He paused briefly. "He was grandfather and father to Bradford Hemmingway and his granddaughter-in-law Camilla Hemmingway. Great-grandfather to Marshall and his wife Danielle Hemmingway, Meghan and Morgan Hemmingway and great-great-grandfather to Emilla Hemmingway. But instead of me telling you about this man, let's hear from the family." Camilla and Bradford stood up in unison, approached the pulpit and Bradford began to speak, Camilla standing next to him clutching his hand as a source of comfort for him. "Grandpa as he was known to us, was the cornerstone of our family. He loved life and led it to the fullest. There are many things I could say about this man, but one thing I need to say is that he was our rock. Grandpa was there for me through many trials. He and grandma h

    Three months after Meghan was discharged from hospital, she went back to university. Facing the trauma of what had occurred earlier that year, Lloyd stood by her side. "Megs, you don't need to do this right now, you know. Take your time and ease back into it," he said tenderly. "I need to do this," she said. They walked on to campus and all who knew her stopped. For a moment in time, the air was heavy with confusion and mixed feelings. Here was a young woman who had been severely hurt and almost raped by one of their own. But he was oh so popular at school."Come baby girl, don't let any of those stares worry you. You did nothing wrong, you kept your integrity, and you can hold your head high," Lloyd encouraged her as they walked from the gate on to the quads where all the students gathered before the start of their day. Taking her by the hand, he showed her that he was there for her every step of the way. A reassuring feeling. Clasping her hand in his, they walked through th

All the time he had, he devoted to being with her. "Megs, Kevin is in jail. He will eventually get out. When the time is right, we will take the appropriate steps," he reassured her. "How long do I need to be here?" she asked. "Until the doctors say you can go home," a voice in the background said.Turning to the voice at the entrance of the door were the Carltons. They had been away on vacation and had only just arrived back when they saw the message from their son."Mom, dad, you're back from your vacation!" he exclaimed, never happier to see his parents. "Yes my son," Erica said as they approached the bed. Bending over, Erica gave Meghan a kiss on the forehead. "How are you doing honey?" she asked, her voice laced with empathy and concern."I'm slowly getting there, Mrs Carlton. Thank you both for coming," she re

In the month of April, the doctors approached the family. "Mr and Mrs Hemmingway, we need to think about pulling the life support plug. We don't know how much brain damage she will incur. Even if she comes around she could be in a vegetative state," the doctor explained. Hearing those words, Camilla fell apart and collapsed."No!" Bradford stated, "Money is not an issue. We will keep her on."Lifting his wife up into his arms, he sat there cradling her. "Don't worry babe, we will fight for her."Lloyd walked in from his day at the university. "Dad?" he questioned, see

NO ONE asks for it and NO ONE should ever be subjected to it.As the ambulance rushed to the hospital, Lloyd sat by Meghan's side.

I'm going back to my dorm room to collect the rest of my things and then, when you have time, after registration, you can fetch me," she said."You mean you really going to move in with me?" he asked. "Yes, but I will have my own room," she giggled. Packing Marshall's car with bags, his mother said, "Just shout if you guys
