RoB - unexpected death

Evelynn stared at the cell phone in her shaky hand for what seemed like a long time after she talked to Pauline. Pauline was crying as she shared the shocking news that Alina was found dead earlier that morning from an apparent suicide. The quartet had been home less than a week from their road trip to Death Valley and Vegas, and Alina, in particular, seemed very cheerful and relaxed, and was looking forward to the team's next project. This made the terrible announcement even more jarring and confusing.Alina had hanged herself, and no note or clue to her reason was evident. Alina's housekeeper had found the body, and the investigators figured that Alina had been dead for at least two days. Myrtle was the first to know, because the police found her name with the number of the Southside Soup Kitchen where Myrtle still worked once a week. Myrtle immediately called Sharon and Pauline, and they met at the Downtown park an hour later. They realized that they could 't claim Alina's body or even show up at any possible funeral or memorial service. They would have their own private gathering later, but first they had to break the news to Jillian, and see what their boss wanted them to do or not to do.Pauline called Evelynn so that Evelynn could tell Jill that the quartet was now a trio. Jill listened, then requested that Evelynn take care of making " an anonymous donor's" payment for cremation.Jill went to her bedroom to be alone the remainder of day. Evelynn talked to the house staff. ABC, Yung and Ruby were only told that a friend of Jill's had died, and that Jill did not want to be disturbed.
