During a time of grief, when a man lost his loving father, his step-mom and her four adult children appeared at the funeral wearing white from head to toe.
The moment they entered the room, all eyes were on them. It was an unusual choice of attire for such a somber occasion. They were dressed as though they were attending a summer party, not the funeral of the man who gave them everything.
The man who shared the story said he approached his step-mom and asked her what she was thinking. She, however, being sassy as she has always been, waved dismissively and said that she and her children were just following along with her now late husband’s final wish.
Listening to her, the man was surprised. Why would his father want someone wearing white on his funeral?
He was a witty man. Was he having something on his mind before he passed away? Or, his step-mom Vivian was trying to prove she was now in charge of the business and all the assets. Who knew. But the man was overcome with grief and couldn’t pay much thought to Vivian and her behavior.
Before the service began, Vivian and her kids took the seats at the front row. Instead of looking sad, they all had tiny smiles on their faces.
At that moment, Joe, the best friend of the deceased, started reading a letter. Needless to say, the words he uttered shocked everyone.
“Throughout my illness, my ex-wife Martha was by my side, whereas Vivian and her kids only showed up when they needed something,” the letter read. Further, Joe revealed:”My financial advisor uncovered that Vivian and her children were stealing money from me.” The room filled with shocked whispers as Vivian’s face went pale. “I asked them to wear white so everyone could see them for who they truly are.”
Vivian and her children stormed out of the place, and their exit was a relief for the rest of the people who were there to honor the man’s father.
During the rest of the service, the attendees shared their personal stories about the late man’s life. And his son commented, “Dad always knew how to pick his moments.”
