As Jenkins sits in attendance at the funeral, his memory is prompted by the sights of his friends and family around him. There is Larissa, his wife; Joe and Megan, his son and daughter; and Jason, his best friend from childhood. Seeing these people spurs colorful memories of growing up from a young boy into a successful man and beloved father. In this coming-of-age story that uses a funeral as a backdrop, J. E. Ernst examines how little moments can add up to shape a persons life. After all, what is a funeral if not a celebration of life?
