My father left me with so many memories. But, the best came to me when I
saw him lying in all that white.

RANDY (aside)
Ben and I never actually met. We spoke on the telephone. He reminded me of
my own father. He's passed on as well.
(Another spotlight rises. TYenters it. KAREN crosses to RANDY.)

He took it hard when Helen died. I think he grieved more than I did. He
often pointed out she was his sister before she was my wife. Ben loved his family. If anything, he loved them too much.
KAREN (to RANDY:)
I'm worried about Mom. She's hardly touched food in days.
RANDY
Are you sure? We haven't been with her constantly. ...
