I pull it out. I'm looking at it. I'm trying to figure out what it is. And I hear a voice coming from the back. One of the older ladies said, well, I was told to bring something that I already had. And this is my husband. Well, it's my husband's ashes. And he wanted me to spread them in a local park. And I just can't bear to do it alone. I couldn't bear to do it at all.

So I thought that if I came here.

Oh, you didn't.

You know, I thought that if I gave it to someone that they could help me or they could then take the ashes and dispose of them the way that she wanted them to. And I mean, she was very emotional saying this. And I was still sort of in a grief state.

Yeah. The whole room was quiet. Like nobody was saying anything at this point. you know, I was like, okay, Ruby, I'll help you with this. So then kind of just sat there and I wasn't the last one to open. So there was still some other gifts that people needed to open and everyone's done opening the gifts and we're mingling around again. I was 30.

I feel like she was at least in her seventies. I go over, I give her a big hug and I said, Ruby, I'm going to help you with this. We're going to do this. She may have at some point told me what her late husband's name was. I don't remember that. But she's like, we'll do this for him. And we'll make sure his wishes are all met.

We're not facing each other. We're hugging. So she's on my shoulder. And I hear her. And I think that she's crying. And she's actually laughing. Uh-oh.
