    we still have grandpa in a box in the garage because my mother refuses to get him an urn or go sprinkle him over the lake he liked. he’s followed us through three houses and I’m concerned I’m going to inherit grandpa.

        I can’t wait for the moment I get to introduce him to my niblings. “Hey cats, this is your great grandfather. Treat him with respect, change his box twice a year.”

        Yeah but how much of him? Both of his husbands got ash we can pretend are him and put him in urns. It’s a family tradition now to go out to the garage, look up in shame at the box of grandpa as you grab five popsicles just for yourself.
