After I told the stories everyone at the reunion had tears in their eyes. We brought along picture albums so everyone could pictures of our family growing up. I also brought along two boxes of chocolate covered and opened them so everyone could have some.

As for the auction and settling of the estate, it went wonderfully. Everyone got what Dad and Mom had promised them. Most came to the auction and bought other keepsake items to keep in the family.

The lawyer for the estate said he never has seen a family so close and not bickering among themselves and being petty and miserable. He told me our parents must have been some very special people. We agreed.

After he called us all in and gave us our portion of the estate my daughter Connie gave him a box of chocolate covered cherries to remember us by.

He told us he would never forget us. He never sees many families as close as ours is.

It's amazing that a story can be so good, even without it being filled with sex. I can understand Caroline wanting to go back to work and having her nights out with the girls. My Mom was the same once all of us kids were grown and out on our own. I know my mom was vain and liked to be complemented on her looks but don't know if she ever cheated on my dad. I had my suspicions but never pushed it for my dads sake. Funny thing was that my dad passed away first, they were both in assisted living home, and I think my mom realized just how much he had loved her and how much she now missed him. Again, great story.

Caroline was a slut, period!

This is a well written emotional of a tightknit family that lasted 62 years. Downside of the story was Caroline going dancing with her girlfriends in the bars and dancing with strange men, what would have happened if Carl hadn't of been there to rescue Caroline when the guy had her arms pinned to her side. This great story gets my 5-star vote.

The most emotional, loving and cry-worthy story I have ever read anywhere. Is it allergy time again? Thank you very much for the memories it brought back from my own family. Five stars for Carl but barely a three for Caroline.

One of the big downsides of the story for me was Caroline going dancing with her girlfriends. That is an excellent recipe for cheating and/or being unfaithful. She has too much of a temper for her own good and to be as likeable as her husband. I guess she could be a real bitch at some point!

Fantastic Tale of True Love!

What a perfectly written story about True Love, Commitment and Romance!!! I will remember this story every time I see a box of chocolate covered cherries. They are rare around here. Everyone has switched to cherries flavoured cream filled instead. Chocolate covered cherries were my mother's favorite as well!

Meh

I wanted to like this story, but I didn't care for the wife. To me, Caroline seemed to be self-centered. She wanted her nights out so she could dance with other men. It always has to be her way or she would make everyone miserable. She locked her husband out of the house. I guess she was good in bed which caused little Carl to do all of the thinking for big Carl.

Maybe if Caroline was likeable, I may have enjoyed the story. Oh well, a lot of others gave it high praise. I didn't want to rain on their parade so I added an extra point to score to make it four stars. It's the best I could do after being left with disappointment.

Who doesn't like chocolate covered cherries?

When I was a kid, my favorite aunt usually had a box of chocolate covered cherries around when we went to visit her. Maybe that's why she was my favorite. Unfortunately my wife was never a fan of chocolate, but when I traveled (frequently) I usually picked up a red silk rose on the way home. After 56 years together she has a lot of bouquets of roses around our house..

Thanks for the memories, yours and mine,
