[quote=Anonymous]Where is your father in law to be buried when he dies?

If on the east coast then you will have the added headache of having the casket flown back and two funeral homes etc.

If he will be buried in California and the doctor gave the all clear then maybe make peace and let the BIL and SIL do their thing.

You have probably gone far and beyond most daughter in laws already.  Support your husband to say bye to his dad
And then get some mental rest you probably need.

Just make sure on whichever coast you line up the funeral home, cemetery, casket, etc. on average it’s 3-4K for the burial plot, 2k for the liner and the opening of the ground. Can be as high as 4K. and stone can be 2k.

So make the calls. Your talking 10k set aside from that 80k
Plus casket and funeral home costs.

Estimate 15k.  You need to have a written agreement with west coast family that they split the cost evenly.

Put everything in writing. and both families sign.

This will save you nasty money grubbing later with cheap sil. [/quote]
