Lori POV

Lori Walsh regretted how closed off she was with her children.  Five years had passed since she had called her daughter's boyfriend redneck trash.  She had seen her grandson, Hunter a total of five times and only got to hold him once. 

Her ex had married an African-American woman named Michonne.  She had met Michonne at Beth and Daryl's wedding and Rick had only been dating the woman then.

As she covered the newest bruises to her face with the extra thick coverup, she couldn't help but realize how badly of a mistake she made.  She knew she should still be Mrs. Grimes, not Mrs. Walsh, covering up the bruises her crazy alcoholic husband had put there.  She knew Beth was right. Daryl wasn't trash. Her husband is. And so is she for putting her family through all that.

General POV

When the body of Lori Walsh was discovered, it hadn't been a complete shock. People had seen Shane get rough with her. One time, at a birthday party for Beth and Daryl's youngest child, daughter Allison, Shane had gripped Lori's arm hard enough to make her wince and practically dragged her out of the Dixon's house because he didn't want to miss a football game.

Beth POV

Beth Dixon held her husband's hand for support as they walked away from her mother's grave.  One thing that made Beth happy was that she had made peace with each other.  She had just wished her mother had opened up to her what Shane had been doing to her.  She could've gotten her away from Shane.  Plus, there were a few people who would have loved to take Shane out.

The honor had been given to Rick.  Nobody knows what happened that night, what 'really' happened.  All anyone knows is that Rick went to apprehend Shane and shots were fired.  Rick got shot in the shoulder and Shane in the chest.  Shane died instantly.
