So, Your Grandma Died….Again.

Thank you for calling and letting me know you won’t be in today.  That’s definitely better than the no-call no-show you had last Friday.

I am so sorry to hear that your grandmother died.  My prayers go out to you and your family.  If memory serves me correctly, this is the sixth time in 3 years that you lost a grandmother–that must be rough.    I know your family was very close–I remember you telling me how there had never been a divorce on either side of your family.  With that in mind, I’m still a bit fuzzy on how you managed to have 6 grandmothers, but I’ve never been great at math, so maybe I’m just confused.

And looking back in your file, I see the other grandmothers died on Monday too.  That’s weird.   But at least you’ll have a three-day weekend to grieve with your family.  And what a bummer to lose someone over a long Holiday weekend.  It’s a shame you won’t be able to celebrate, what with your grieving and all.

So anyway, if you tell me when and where the funeral is, I would love to send a nice flower arrangement…Oh, I guess I can just pull the information from the obit–what was her name?  What’s that?  There won’t be an obit?  And no service?  Your family IS private, aren’t they?
