[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry OP. My sister is very similar. I think you just tell the funeral home that they need to be the intermediary and essentially in charge, and they should be able to handle it. Just keep re-iterating the message to them if they slip. Also, the funeral is for the living. I suggest giving a good hard think about what you want out of the funeral. At my father's funeral, after I spoke, my sister got up and refuted everything I said and went on to complain what an awful man our father was. I hope that doesn't happen to you. I'm planning to NOT speak at my mother's funeral. And at my brother's funeral I only had very formal superficial interactions with her. I shared my remarks with her beforehand, and asked to see hers. She did share, and didn't diverge from them too much in the delivery - but it was a brother and not a parent. I'm sorry you have to go through this. Boundaries, planning, and peace. [/quote]
