To Celebrate a Life
They are meeting in remembrance, of a life. A woman of whom he has no visible memories. The marriage of his mom's brother had dissolved before memories could be built. Her offspring to him, become more like siblings, then cousins. Every year at the clan gatherings they renewed their relationships and created new memories. The oldest daughter had been there for him in the late teen years as he saight to construct relationships with his peers. When one has undiagnosed autism, building lasting relationships can be difficult. It was the disolution of the marriage that caused the loss of the nanny. Nance moved to Bountiful to begin a life nurching his uncle's children. So now he meets with the siblings in remembrance of a woman he wished he had come to know. He is hoping this will bring a renewal of familial relationships. A chance to leave new memories for his brothers and sisters, children of the Eternal Gods
