[quote=Anonymous]Why would someone attend? Curiosity about the people in the sibiling's life? Schadenfreude? Is there any reason to care how their remaining friends and family acknowledge the deceased's life and death? Wanting to know if they're getting anything in the will? If the answer to any of these is "yes," it sounds like they're still living in the other sibling's head. Also, their remaining friends and family may not want the surviving sibling there, just a thought. They'll be wondering the same questions: is it schadenfreude, has OP's friend come to gloat or to hear the will? They may have heard awful things about OP's friend from the deceased and not want anything to do with her. Et cetera et cetera. Have some consideration for the surviving family and friends, if not for the estranged sibling. Attending would create extra drama, whether intentionally or not, and they don't need extra drama on this day when they're grieving. [/quote]
