Scarlett whispered back as she pushed her to their row just in time for the start of the funeral service. Father Jensen kept it simple, with a brief sermon and an equally short list of speakers, none of whom had any horrible things to say about Carol.

She expected Adeline to break down at the sight of the casket being lowered to the ground. But, the little girl showed very little emotion as she threw a handful of freshly dug soil and a white rose in the grave in a final goodb

Flavius responds. We take out seats along with everyone else just as a priest enters the room. The funeral is long, drawn-out, and painfully depressing. The gurgling noise of the noble's crocodile tears only adds to the eeriness of the room. The priest spends nearly an hour going on about God and what happens to the souls of the departed. Most of what he is saying has nothing to do with Gregory or Geoffrey. When the priest is finally done speaking, people take turns talking about their time with the deceased.

The funeral proceeded swiftly, but everything was meticulously handled by Ethan, with each detail prepared with sincerity and respect.

With a heavy heart, she walked under the cold, stark sunlight, the golden rays mingling with tears on her mournful face. As the funeral concluded, Ula couldn't hold her strength any longer and collapsed before the cold stone tomb. The most heartbreaking part was not just the loss but the painful tableau of separation. Ethan, the reliable companion, embraced Ula and quickly took her to the

The two death certificates lay side by side, light as paper and impossible to lift. The funeral was set for three days later. Adrian arranged for Nora and Eli to be buried beside her mother, near the quiet edge of the military family cemetery. Nora had gone to the hospital alone, paid alone, and come home alone too many times. He would not leave her far from the only family who had ever waited for her. It rained on the day of the funeral. Officers came. Officers’ wives came. Family Readiness volunteers came, along with charity board members and people who had once whispered gold digger behind Nora’s back. Many brought flowers. Few dared to speak.

I snapped, grabbing Cin and towing her along behind me. And Hyacinth tripped over. She knocked Caleb forward – and he knocked into me. What the hell was going on? Why was my dad’s funeral becoming an episode of the fucking Chuckle Brothers? It was more than I could bear. I stumbled upright and shoved Alpha Caleb away. Only to realise that more and more of the seats in The Endpoint had filled, and half the damn pack was watching us with eagle eyes. “I’m sorry,” I said, too loudly, my throat thick with unshed tears, “I fell.”

Author. A big hall full of flowers and coffins. Men in suits gathered around each corner of the hall with their heads drooping. Slowly people started to fill inside and took their seats. And just like that, a royal funeral started for the Hudson’s. A room full of the grieving chatted about how the parents were, what they were like, how they died so young but it must have been fate. I don't understand any of that! Why must we pull fate into something so, so dark? Isn't fate like falling in love with someone and telling them it was fate that they had met, but in this case they were met with death, and it didn't take so kindly to the living. Rows of the grieving sat with their red wine and tear

CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND FIVE: COLLISION NOVA POV The funeral was small. Pathetic, really. It was just me, Sam, the boys, and three people I didn't recognize who'd probably known my godmother from the bar or her dealer's circle. The pastor said generic things about eternal rest and God's mercy. I stood there holding Phoenix's hand while Asher clung to Sam's leg, both boys confused about why we were looking at a box in the ground.

Randy started spam calling me, but I answered none of his calls. I ended up answering after he used a different phone, and he started yelling at me, “Emma, you’re the one who’s in the wrong! Why are you still kicking up a fuss?! Are you ignoring me to get my attention?! “Have you forgotten that it’s our marking ceremony today?! Why aren’t you here?! “Also, why is there only a coffin in the church, and why is my mother lying in it?! Is this her funeral?”

"Gonna die smug about it." The grandkids stood shoulder to shoulder around the open graves, a wall of muscle and poise that made the funeral director nervous. Eli...now broad as an oak, jaw set tight...kept his hand on Lia's shoulder as she wiped her eyes. Noah's daughter, all sharp angles and quiet rage, traced the family crest carved into Jeff's coffin with her thumb. Inside the farmhouse later, whiskey flowed and stories burned hotter. Micah...Marcus's spitting image....leaned against the mantel, watching his cousins strip off black suits and dresses like shedding skin.

feet beyond the entrance. In that crystalline space congregated a gaggle of females made up of blood relatives and honored acquaintances called "aunties," seated on folding chairs or on top of cardboard boxes, usually used during shiva, to mourn the dead. Billie would soon join them, ignoring compliments to her Lartiga hat or her little gauzy collar. Barbara would go in search of the cousins, who scampered through the embalming room - blithely ignoring the freshly arranged body lying on the marble slab awaiting burial on Sunday - in the direction of the small back garden, where they played in the duck pond. Arlyne, who until a year ago had been delighted to join them, at that moment waited
