[quote=Anonymous]Especially for older folks, you need to call them. There are many who were brought up that those whose attendance was "mandatory", e.g. close family or seriously close friends, e.g. those people who were going to come no matter what, were assumed to be RSVP yes and they would let you know if they were not attending. You should call and confirm, but expect some will answer with "Well, you knew I was coming, so why did I have to RSVP?" So, those very people that you are inquiring about are probably of the mindset that you knew they would not miss this and if for some reason, they were going to miss it, it was their obligation to let you know they were not coming, rather than the other way around. When I was younger, the point of RSVP's was to save the host time and effort by having a set of "known" responses. So those who you knew would attend would only bother you if they were not able to make it.[/quote]
