A haunted house speaks, a doctor disappears, and a dear friend dies too young of cancer. Sisters are celebrated, a grieving parent finds help in a treatment center, and a scientist laughs with ghosts. The town watches, laughing and crying with her, as one of its own finds her way through a complex maze of relationships. A long-term marriage is revealed through stories of those who move from small town America to destinies beyond. Kay Nation loves living in New Mexico with her husband, Bob, and a very large cat named Popcorn. While raising two daughters who loved riding horses and showing sheep at the county fair each year, Kay worked as a teacher and counselor. She has published a non-fiction book for young adults as well as several short stories. Walking into the hospital, Jenny squared her shoulders and tried to smile. She swallowed the tears that lodged in her throat, and struggled to get her thoughts in order. Stopping in the gift shop to pick up some yellow roses, she remembered carrying a bouquet of these as maid of honor in that hurried wedding seventeen years ago. It was held in the Methodist Church in Longview, a small Nebraska town where she and Nance became best friends.

Candle Lighters
Jenny thought back on that church just two blocks from the street where they lived in houses that faced each other. It sat regally on the large corner lot, built of white stone with a beautiful stained glass window over the choir loft. Years before, Jenny and Nance opened many services by walking across the nave holding long, golden candle lighters with flames barely flickering. They tried so hard to be solemn as they came in from opposite sides, but invariably giggled in front of the entire congregation as soon as they looked at one another. Jenny remembered the laughter extinguishing her flame and whispers of the disapproving faithful as she lit it once more from Nance's lighter.
