For months, Rhiann Kelly prepared to move from Spokane, Washington to western Montana with her grandmother in order to start an animal rescue sanctuary. That dream may now be like the wisp of fog that sometimes engulfs the city as she and her sister, Erin, bury their beloved Grams. As the two women share moments of sorrow as well as happy memories, they come to realize the strong heritage and special legacy their parents and grandparents provided. Does Rhiann turn the page and pursue her dream, or does this, yet another death of another family member, cloud her vision?
