[quote=Anonymous]Wow! I am amazed at you OP as well as your mom.

In my family, we have informed each other (parents, ILs, siblings, nieces and nephews) over text -

[i]Family, very sad to share this news with all of you.  My ---(relation name), Mr or Ms -----(relative name), passed away due to....(How he passed away.  She was X yrs old and is survived by ....(closest people's name).  Last rites were performed on xyz date. Date of memorial service is -
XYX. Zoom link is -  ABC/Zoom.com

You can text or call them at -
- Name - Phone number of family member 1
- Name - Phone number of family member 2
- Name - Phone number of family member 3...

If after talking/texting to them, you also want to send a card, flowers etc the address is 
XYZ, street, 
City, State
Country..
 [/i]

In our family we do not play games and everyone dutifully calls/texts and pays their respects.  We make it easier for everyone to follow the correct social etiquettes. Our teenagers in the family also text or use social media DM to reach out to their peers and pay respects.

I however don't expect your mom to develop more warm feelings for your MIL and do more than what she has done. Maybe she feels that you are representing her also. [/quote]
