United in the Hereafter

In the aftermath of Olivia's death, the family sat together at the kitchen table and tried to comfort one another with the thought of those we have lost that may be there to greet Livi in the afterlife. There would be her grandmothers and grandfathers, uncles, aunts, and so on, and it gave everyone a sense of solace to know that wherever Olivia is, she might still be with family and friends who love her. It was in this moment that, true to fashion, Marina pointed out to all, "Livi'd be like, 'Hi Grandmom, hi Granpop, hey Uncle Marty. So, where's Paul Walker??'" She hit the proverbial nail on the head with that one.
