I wish I lived near by...I'd pull a Grandma Mazur...

“Will you look at this," Grandma said. "Closed casket. Isn't this a fine howdy-do. I get dressed up and come out to pay my respects, and I don't even get to see anything."
Martha Deeter was shot and autopsied. They'd taken her brain out to get weighed. After she was put back together she probably looked like Frankenstein. I was personally relieved to see a closed casket.”

“We better hurry," Grandma said. "I don't want to be late for the viewing. I want to get a good seat right up front, and there'll probably be a crowd, being that the deceased was shot. You know how some people are nosy about that sort of thing."

There was silence at the table, no one daring to make a comment.

"Well, I guess I might be a little nosy," Grandma finally said.”
**************************************

“Grandma Mazur reads the obituary columns like they're part of the paper's entertainment section. Other communities have country clubs and fraternal orders. The Burg has funeral parlors. If people stopped dying, the social life of the Burg would come to a grinding halt.”

LOL too funny!

You could come for a visit and we could pretend to be long lost cousins who just need one more peek at our “beloved” cousin, I’ll get hubby working on the genealogy sheet to prove relationship.

My youngest sister loves Janet Evanovich, reads all her books, has tried to get me interested by giving me books for my birthday but I’m not that much of a mystery reader even though I love the Hallmark Mystery Channel.
