The Keeper & Gifts H D Greaves

"She's a keeper." That's what everyone said at my son's wedding. "She's a keeper." I declined to agree. But what did I know? I was merely the father of the groom. Fathers of grooms have no opinions about anything, especially about the bride. So begins a true story of a wedding that took place in the Little Brown Church in the Vale, in Nashua, Iowa, on a sultry Labor Day, and the awful events that followed. The little story, Gifts, is a fable about giving and receiving.
