Chapter 24: Tern House
By seven the dining room at Tern House held a hundred and twenty people and the smell of my grandmother-in-law's gravy.
The line cooks had pushed the tables into five long rows under the copper pots.

Maude sat at the head table in a purple velvet pantsuit, with a tiara of paper doilies someone's grandchild had made her.
My mother sat at her right, upright in her wheelchair, in the green headscarf with the gold thread.
I sat at my mother's side in the velvet dress, with the silver bird at my shoulder.
Ewan stood behind my chair with one hand on its back, in the only tuxedo I had ever seen him wear.

"Dale. Gram put him on. She told the door to seat him at table nine."
