           But would the friends and relatives of Kaleipus allow Hope to be   
   "honored" next to Solan?   
           Someone would have to collect the wood, stack it up, and place the   
   body on it.   
           I don't think Gabrielle could do it by herself and I don' t see anyone   
   volunteering.
