[quote=Anonymous]How old are you all? I’m 50 and if I went to all the funerals for my friends’ parents, it would be a full time job. It’s different when you’re 30 and the loss is more shocking. I didn’t invite nor expect any friends to fly to my parents’ out of state services. Even some family couldn’t make it. If you’re not important enough to be consulted on the date of the service, you don’t have to go. Yes, it’s lovely if you do. But don’t overextend yourself repeatedly and resent it. In our grandparents day, people didn’t travel extended distances for services. [/quote]
