[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A graveside service is a funeral.

People often have some sort of short term insanity surrounding a close relative’s death, and money is at the heart of all their complaints. You seem to be suffering from this common ailment. Wishing you peace. [/quote]

Does this mean that I should forget about the photos? Is it crazy to wonder why they did not follow through with sending them?

You seem to have no idea how much work is involved in dealing with a relative's passing.  Not just making the funeral arrangements, but winding down their financial affairs, dealing with their stuff, sorting through papers, paying final bills, closing accounts.  It's a huge job, even when the financial estate is small.  I would probably send photos if I found them, but if I were a step-child that was left with this job, I wouldn't be super inclined to hop to do things on your schedule.  Particularly if you didn't even bother to show up for his "graveside service." [/quote]
