W: Hi, Tim. I’m really sorry to hear about your grandfather. My sincerest sympathies go out to you and your family. He was such a great man.
M: Thanks. As you know, he had been sick for some time before he passed away, so we were somewhat prepared.
W: So, how’s your grandmother taking it?
M: Oh, it’s been really hard on her. I don’t think you get over something like that.
W: Yeah, I’m sure. My heart really goes out to her. Uh, so how’s your grandmother going to be able to manage things alone?
M: Well, financially, grandmother will be able to live a secure life from now on. I mean, grandfather had life insurance and substantial investments in property and stocks, so returns on those should take care of her. But our main concern at this moment is her emotional state. She’s really down, so a call now and again should brighten her day.
W: So, what are the funeral arrangements?
M: Well, some of the family members will get together on Tuesday morning for a private memorial service, but there will be a viewing in the afternoon from 2:00 to 3:00, followed by the funeral service.
W: I wish there was something I could do for you.
M: Well, actually, there is. You know, grandfather really admired you a lot, and before he died, he asked if you’d sing a musical number at the funeral.
W: Really? I’d be honored.
M: It would really mean a lot to the family.
W: Sure. Then, see you on Tuesday.
M: Okay, see you then.
