| Coming February 2011 In Lieu of Flowers by Daphne Mintz Who is the mysterious woman that appears at a funeral home to pay respects to a father and uncle of two men? The nephew, James, can’t shake the unanswered question. The son, Damon, is not sure he really wants to know. The answers reveal more about themselves than of the mystery woman, and show us all how shared moments can stand, for better and worse, beyond any token of remembrance. |
