People in drawers the story

Over the years I have received many memorial cards for dead people, usually with a picture and a brief description of their life.

I have no set place for these items and I was describing to a fellow writer the scenario – for example Blanche turns up often, she was the mother of many children; a bit like the old women in the shoe and also the beautiful mother of Veronica.  Josephine also was the mother of many children and was sent to me from Australia; Joseph was from London, the father of a good friend and he went on his way with the words from Bat out of Hell which was also on his memorial card, and there are more.

Back to the fellow writer, she thought this tale was the beginning of many short stories so if you ever read a story by Nelly Diamond remember it was my idea first.
