Life and death: putting it all together, sentence 4

Mrs Patel ends with a prayer, «Thank you, God, for life, for love, and for the people we remember», and the children who do not pray sit quietly, giving thanks in their own way: everyone joins in, each as themselves.

Who acts: Mrs, we, children, everyone · What happens: end, thank, remember, not pray, sit, give · To what, where: children, you, thanks, own way · Speech: someone speaks here
