Daniel wrapped his arms around him. "Alright."

The news brought a wave of relief to the Lynette family.

Isaac was nowhere to be found, so plans for the funeral were set in motion.

The Salters began to gather the belongings found at the scene, ready to take everything back to Imperial City.

Daniel went with them to Imperial City and would not return to Craneville until the day of the burial.

News of Isaac's passing spread throughout the Salter family. Manuel Salter, locked behind bars, nearly laughed out loud-only to be taught a harsh lesson by his cellmate that same night. With a broken arm, he dared not laugh again.

Isaac's funeral was arranged with utmost discretion.

Wesley and Derek, upon hearing the news, informed William, and the group convened in solemnity.

The news of Brittany's amnesia had them all shaking their heads in dismay.

Once the funeral arrangements were finalized, Noel took charge of everything. They chose a gravesite beside Grace's. In just half a year, both Grace and Isaac had departed - a crushing blow to Noel.
