Three cotton shirts, two pairs of dark wool trousers, four pairs of black socks and my plastic pill organizer fit into the top two drawers of the tall dresser.

At the bottom of the suitcase was the square silver picture frame from the old hallway desk back home.

In the photo, Evelyn stood in the side garden next to her blue hydrangeas, holding her wide sun hat down against a sudden breeze off the lake.

I took the frame into the living room and set it on the little end table by the balcony window.

Beside it I placed her silver reading glasses.
