I've posted this on FB and just had to share here.
A woman came into The Mushroom Cap today to look around and to get a feel for Kennett Square. Her husband was sitting out on the bench in front of the store with their black lab. We chatted a bit - found out that they were in Kennett Square on a very special mission - to spread her parent's ashes at "Kennett Square Park". I am not sure where that would have been. They had already spread some of the ashes along the stream down at Anson Nixon Park. Her Dad proposed to her Mother in Kennett Square in the '40s. How very special that must have been for them to want their ashes brought back to where they made a committment to each other forever.
In chatting I found out that these folks drove up from FL to honor her Dad's last request. Her Mother was originally from NJ and her Dad was from PA. Her Mother was on Broadway and was a Rockette. She did tell me their names but I do not recall them.
Seems lots of folks do return to Kennett Square in one way or another. Kennett Square is very Cool!
