I think that August is when they went to the coast and were so full of fun and life. That's what I got out of it.
Katherine
We have the same question. 8/15 is when Violette and her husband moved to work at the cemetery. Can’t make that work as to why she thinks of her child as that date.
Carol
I think it's the time she wants to remember her daughter by. The happy time of August at the coast.
