One Final Cruise; One Last Farewell

We never discussed music. We discussed many things over the years, but never music. When it was time to produce a playlist for Fritz, I didn’t know her favorite song – or if she even had one. So, I chose some music from her era and some from mine and compiled the soundtrack for her last cruise.

Fritz Kinney was my mother-in-law. She passed away in 2017, a few weeks shy of what would have been her 92nd birthday.

After a few days of meetings with a probate lawyer, the funeral home, and others, Fritz’ cremains were given to my wife Kris’ older sister, Kathy. Kathy, who wasn’t sure when or where she would scatter Fritz’ ashes, never got around to it. A little more than a year later, Kathy went to bed one night and never woke up. The disposition of Fritz’ remains became our responsibility. We escorted Fritz on her final journey last week.
