Grimereaped

Created by: petaj

Pronunciation: grime-reept

Sentence: Gemma felt she had become a grimereaper when her fourth husband dropped dead after she asked him to clear the table. Eerily, her previous three husbands had also fallen gravely ill and died when confronted with simple household chores.
