Please answer this: M: Well, I'm not sure. It will cost a lot of money and take a lot of time. Are you doing it just to fit in with everyone else? W: No, that's not the reason. I think their houses look nice with gardens. And I think ours would look better,too. M: Okay. If that's how you feel, we can go down to the local garden center and pick out some things. What kind of flowers would you like to plant? I like yellow ones and purple ones. W: I'm not quite sure. Id like to look at some different kinds.

Please answer this: Tim: Thanks. As you know, he had been sick for some time before he passed away, so we were somewhat prepared. Heather: So, how's your mom taking it? Tim: Oh, it's been really hard on her. I don't think you get over something like that. Heather: Yeah, I'm sure. My heart really goes out to her. [Thanks.] Uh, so how's your mom going to be able to manage things alone? Tim: Well, financially, mom will be able to live a secure life from now on. I mean, Dad had life insurance and substantial investments in property and stocks, so returns on those should take care of her. [That's good to hear.] But our main concern at this moment is her emotional state. [Yeah.] She's really down, so a call now and again should brighten her day. Heather: So, what are the funeral arrangements? The obituary in the paper didn't mention much about the funeral. Tim: Well, some of the family members will get together on Tuesday morning for a private memorial service, but there will be a viewing in the afternoon from 2:00 to 3:00, followed by the funeral service. One of my uncles will be giving the eulogy. Heather: I wish there was something I could do you. * Tim: Well, actually, there is. [Oh?]. You know, Dad really admired you a lot, and before he died, he asked if you'd sing a musical number at the funeral. Heather: Really? I'd be honored. Tim: It would really mean a lot to the family. Heather: Sure. Then, see you on Tuesday. Tim: Okay, see you then. What was said before this conversation?
