Aaron ended up speaking to the care center directors about making funeral arrangements since Keeley was still sobbing in the corner. She may have run out of tears but that wasn't going to stop her from crying.
A weight settled in his heart the moment she came back from that phone call. Everybody knew Robert's time was limited but he had hoped it could be put off as long as possible. He was a vital member of their family.
He would miss his father-in-law too. Robert had always been so kind to him and made sure he felt included even before they were related by marriage. He had been an example to Aaron for what kind of father he wanted to be with his own children.
But of course his pain at losing the only decent father figure in his life was nothing compared to Keeley's, who had now lost her entire family twice. He wished there was something he could do to make her feel better.
