Grief's Trajectory

Dale was newly married. He, Cynthia, Dale and Guy had planned the cookout to celebrate their three-month anniversary. Cynthia had stayed home because she was not feeling well so the three of them were enjoying some brats, beer out at the park. It seemed like it would be a perfect day.

A flatbed truck parked at the next grill and eight farm boys got out and started to get their grill going. But their table was a ways from their grill.They shouted over and said that they were coming over to get the one he, Dale and Guy were using.

The fight was very one-sided. He it was three on one. He put up a fight as best he could.

Some other picnickers and some park rangers stopped the fight. The rangers made both he and the others leave the park.

Guy was the one that was in shape to drive the old pick that Dale had just purchased. They dropped Dale off. He then realized that he had dropped his wallet out at the park during the fight.Guy drove back to the park, and he went out to find the wallet. He was just standing up when the world went blank.

Cynthia grieved for more than fifty years then one day she knew that she had to see if she could get the person who had killed Dale arrested.

Alex listened the circumstances as described by Cynthia and decides that she will investigate the incident as a murder.

Her investigation of the suspects identified by Cynthia lead to a dead end.

The only other people involved were Dale's best friends.

The interviews with the two friends seems to be leading nowhere. But during a tour of Guy's farm, Alex see's the object that the coroner had described as the weapon used to kill Dale.

Dale is reburied at a new burial site that Cynthia has purchased and next to him is the plot that she has purchased for herself. She plans to be next to him for eternity.
