Sara and Lon look down from heaven at the empty lot where their home once stood.

"Little Jack's all grown up now, with a family of his own."

"Melanie's husband, Fred, died last year."

"Yes." Lon turned his gaze away. "Fred's still processing the change."

"Sam's youngest…" Sara leaned into her husband.

"Don't worry, Jonny will find us, they always do." Lon squeezed her hand.

"But Sam's so sad."

"Take my hand." Lon said gently. "Close your eyes and picture him."

"But it hurts."

"He needs a little something to make it through."

"Sammy, It's us... Jonny will be okay."
