[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If they are conservative they probably only eat Kosher food. Get a gift certificate to a kosher restaurant or grocery store.[/quote] Not necessarily. There is usually a close friend or relative who is coordinating everything. Try to find that person and she (yes, it’s usually a woman) can tell you what the family needs. They may have lots of people in town and need food for a certain meal or that person may be coordinating a meal train. When one of my close friend’s father’s died in another state, a bunch of us wanted to send something to the shiva. I called my friend’s SIL and she told us exactly what to send. Friend’s step mom was very particular. Another time my cousin’s wife father died and all of the cousins wanted to send dinner one night during shiva and the person in charge told us what to send, what time, etc ( people need variety - they can’t have 7 nights of Italian or 7 nights of Chinese etc).[/quote]
