[quote=Anonymous]I went to grandparents’ funerals between 8 and 10. The first one, they had a Rosary the night before with open casket. This was weird for me. I still remember it as macabre, annd even though I’ve been to others as an adult, it sticks out in my mind. But, the thing that was surprising were the gatherings afterwards and seeing my widowed grandparents still there, cousins and relatives, etc. I remember that being a pleasant experience, even fun, with socializing, talking and food, which is also a part of most funerals and helps with the process of grief. I would go but avoid open casket.[/quote]
