A beautiful text, with soft illustrations. The book details Francie's determination to prove that Great-Granny Annabel is more than the "empty shell" she becomes before her death. Francie gets everyone gathered at the funeral home to write down a memory of Great-Granny Annabel, which is read out at the funeral service. When Father John reads the memories out the church was buzzy like a hive full of bees while sweet golden memories spilled over the pews and into the aisles. As Father John says "What a celebration of life!"
