 Hi Daniel. How are you holding up? I'm greatly sorry for your loss.                                                                                 
 Thank you. I'm much better. I've begun organizing everything for the funeral.                                                                       
                                                                                                                                                     
 How's that going?                                                                                                                                   
 It's a lot harder than I imagined. There are many things that you have to arrange. I booked a time and date with the funeral home, but I still      
 have a lot of things to do.                                                                                                                         
 Have you brought a burial plot and a casket?                                                                                                        
 No. Wendy is being cremated. She always talked about how she didn't want to be buried. I already chose a cremation urn and we plan to spread the    
 ashes in the ocean.                                                                                                                                 
 I see. That sounds like something she would have really liked. I'm sure the memorial service will be tasteful. You're doing a great job.            
 Thanks.It hasn't been easy, but luckily we have life insurance and Wendy left behind a detailed will that will sort out any other legal matters.
