After graduating Rory got herself and apartment in Harford and a job writing for The Hartford Courant. She had abandoned her dream of foreign correspondence when she got pregnant, but still became a reporter, like she had always said she would . She raised her two kids into amazing adults. When her kids were 7 she married Logan Huntzberger and they had two more kids, Emma Isabella Huntzberger, and Rachel Lauren Huntzberger.
Lorelai and Luke were happily married and Luke's diner was very successful. Lorelai's Inn was one of the best in Connecticut. Their twins were named William Richard Danes and Gabrielle Emily Danes. In addition they welcomed another baby girl two years later named Haley Amanda Danes. These kids too grew up into wonderful adults. They were all very smart and Will took over Luke's Diner. Gabby went on and became a stay and married a wonderful man and became a stay at home mom. Haley followed in Lorelai's career path and took over the inn with Natalie, Sookie's daughter.
Sookie and her family also succeeded. Davey went on to become a world renowned chef and Natalie ran the Inn with Haley when she grew up. Jackson had passed on his agricultural abilities to his and Sookie's youngest son Daniel Scott Melville.
Emily and Richard lived long and fulfilling lives. Richard suffered from a heart attack again and his last actions were telling his family how proud of them he was. He told his beautiful and adored wife Emily how much she meant to him and he told his daughter that he forgave her for all the things they had fought about. He told her how proud he was that she was his daughter and he could tell people that she was his and all about her success. He told Rory how happy she had made him just by being alive. He died peacefully. It was only a year until Emily too passed on. She of course had become much loser to her daughter and grand daughter over the course of that year and she and Lorelai had even been able to come to terms with each other. She too died peacefully and well remembered.
