    Author’s Note

    This story was written before the COVID-19 virus made a gathering like this impossible.

    Both of my parents had six siblings. Easter was a big family gathering in our Sunday best with Easter egg hunts at the farm, with lots of food and love. Some of my best memories are of those times.

I remember taking him to several of them, sometimes put on by family, sometimes by the community or one of the local service clubs. People don’t do things like that anymore. Not much, anyway. She shook her head. Just another way that things have changed, I suppose.

    They’ve got a way of doin’ that, Sam said. But bringin’ back the old days was sort of the whole idea of this fandango, wasn’t it? That’s what the fella told you?

    That’s right. Phyllis nodded toward a man who was walking across the lawn toward them. Here he comes now.

    The man approaching them was
