Grave Decision

by Gary Lombardo

Healthy, happy Virginia Zaleski has made a weighty decision, and assembles her extended family at her home to convey what it is. Insisting that they sit at her feet, the seventy-year-old goes on to inaccurately and overjoyously recount past times with each family member, causing her daughter-in-law to suspect that she is drunk or mentally amiss. And when the appointed time arrives, and Virginia discloses her momentous decision, her relatives leap to their feet in horror!
