Leslie Faye died a few year back and when they read out her will in a public service, as she had asked, we was all surprised at who got ever thing. Leslie Faye and her lawyer husband what run off several year ago never had no children so there warn't no direct family member to get nothing. Leslie had a sister but they hadn't spoke to one another for ever, so we was all wondering who would get the house, land, and the money (what turned out to be 'bout $50,000.) It went to Nathan Dobbs, a boy what cut her yard and were twenty-five year old when the will were read out. He were as surprised as the rest of us. But what really surprised us (and him) were that he had a duty to preform before the property were put in his name. He were supposed to take Leslie Faye's ashes to Washington state and sprinkle them over the grave of her long lost husband. He were to take a movie making camera with sound and make a picture show of him doing his deed. Then he were to bring that picture show back and show it to ever body in town what wanted to see it. I went and watched it. There he were standing in drizzling rain over the grave of her late husband. You could see his name on the tombstone along side the name of his new wife (I reckon it were a common law wife since he warn't never divorced) what was buried right beside him. Nathan spoke out the words Leslie Faye had thought up as he poured her ashes out of a bright red urn. He said, "You may think you got away from me, Grover Lynn Schultz, but I'm finally all over you."
