[quote=Anonymous]I lost both of my parents in my 30s. Very few of my friends - even close ones who knew them - came to the funeral. A lot of that was bad timing (as death often is). I i treasure the ones who showed up for me. I was surprised by people who did come. I do think part of this debate is cultural or religious - I'm catholic so it is easy. there is a visitation, some evening prayers, and funeral. you don't have to do anything for that besides show up. Memorial services or celebrations of life can be trickier. Just don't expect anything of the people grieving...you are there for them. [/quote]
