Excellent

I am glad to see that it is fictional - that would be a horrible thing to have someone say because it's really not funny, but your first instinct might be to laugh. Thank you for sharing, and best wishes to you.

Actually, it happened and it embarrassed her when she realized what she'd said. Her name and the fact she worked with me were both fictional. She found it amusing herself, later after she matured a bit.There weren't a lot of cremations done back then.

You used very good descriptive words that would have caused so many to be laughing instead of grieving. Best wishes in the contest my friend. love and blessings, teri

Thank you Teri. I've never been comfortable with flash stories because I tend to be too long-winded but I'm trying. Thank for noticing the missing word.
