SALFORD, England - The funeral of Maggie Ward in Salford,
England, drew a sizeable crowd -- including her 172 grand-
children -- the family said. It was the first time all 172
-- ranging in age from 11 to 51 -- had gathered together
in one place. Family members said Ward's funeral Wednesday
was also attended by the 12 surviving children of Ward's
original brood of 15, as well as her 36 great grand-
children and 18 great-great grandchildren, The Daily Mail
reported. "She would never forget a birthday and got
everyone a present at Christmas," Ward's daughter, Anne
Hudson, said of her mother, who died at 87. "She bought
presents all year round -- she would go to markets to get
gifts so she could afford something for everyone. "She was
tough but she had to be to keep us all in line. She was
very proud of her family."

that's a touching story
my mother's funeral was the last time all her grandchildren will ever see each other
also
I had a girlfriend, who at her grandfather's funeral, went to console a sobbing guest.........only to find that this woman was her true sister and they had been kept apart. Strange family logistics. I can't figure how she could have visited her relatives and never meet this person. They have been friends for 30 years or so now.
