[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For a grandparent, parent or sibling, you need to suck it up and go. Aunt, Uncles, Cousins etc - case by case basis. If its prohibitively expensive, bad timing, you didn't like them or didn't even know them that well, etc, then I wouldn't go. [/quote] +1,000 for the first line. For the 2nd line, my extended family is very close. My mom had 3 brothers and I am close to my cousins and aunts/uncles so I would definitely attend. My dad had all 8 of his nieces at his celebration of life. Only one that was very close to delivering/pregnant and lived 6 states away missed it understandably. I will say I have a very hard time with wakes/funerals. I get very emotional even when I am attending one with my husband and I didn't know the person well, i.e., somebody he knew. I still make the effort because I know how much it means to the grieving.[/quote]
