Happy Horror-days

Me: “You know our grandfather passed away the same day [Other Cousin] was born. The exact same day.”

Cousin: “We were living in Germany at the time. Nobody notified my mother until Uncle [Name] sent her the news in a Christmas card. He even sent her a photo of Grandfather in his coffin.”

Me: “For real?”
