The Very Unclimactic End of Apogee

Stradford – Upon – Aven, England;
Amelia Lockheart, a.k.a. “Apogee”, was found in her bed, dying of a natural cause. She passed away peacefully in her sleep. Apogee was well known for her dramatic rescues, and living life to its fullest; She is survived by no less than ten children.
Anastasia, Amy, Amber, Tom, Terry, Joan, Gerald, Igor, and Lucius all state their mother was an excitable woman, compassionate and eager to help; Apogee had the power of superspeed; This is probably why her husband did not worry when it came to housework. She was recorded to have finished cleaning the entire house in under 60 seconds. The cooking was extremely good and the house was in tip top shape. Not to mention sparkling at all times. Amelia, at home, was known for her perfectionism and her strict cleaning rules. Her favorite childhood movie was: “Bedknobs and Broomsticks”.
She said her name was mentioned in the movie as part of a spell.

Amelia will be buried in the forest, as she ordered;

Buried at the climax of life.
