It was a fine funeral. The church ushers were dressed in white complete with white gloves. One gloved closed fist fit neatly in the hollow of their backs. (It was some southern custom. Don't ask me why.) The undertakers nurses milled around administering smelling salts where needed. They were also dressed in all white, complete with nurses hats and white gloves. This was the selection by the choir. They all said that she looked "nat'chul" But, they were lying b/c she died of ovarian cancer. Rachel made "dat gal" promise to not mistreat her "luddle granddaw-thur on account uh she wuz so tender hearted". Mathy said that she "wudden'", but she lied...as usual. Pray for Mathy.
