The funeral was a grand affair.
The hall’s aisle was adorned with floral baskets and wreaths.
ALL members of the Blakely family made it a point to be there.
Dignitaries and celebrities paid their respects.
Even the mayor sent his secretary with flowers.
Several owners of smaller companies made their presence. Once they paid their respects, they approached Tyrone and Larry,

Sabrina affirmed with a nod. “Yes. Have you eaten yet?”
“Not yet. Are you feeling okay? If you’re not, I can arrange to take you home.”
“I’m fine. You’ve been overwhelmed these past days. Now that you have some time off, grab something to eat.”
Tyrone wheeled Sabrina towards the lounge. “I’ve been swamped. Once the funeral concludes, I’ll accompany you to the
prenatal checkups.”
“That’s fine.” Sabrina agreed, noticing his thoughtfulness. “You go ahead and eat. I’ll wait for you outside
