[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the Jewish culture, you don't give money. I know in certain Christian circles they give money with the idea that it's to put towards funeral expenses. (In my family, your funeral expenses are paid for decades ahead of time.) [/quote] This is NOT true. I am Jewish and when our friend died and the new wife was left with costs upward of $100k, we all got together and raised over half. It wasn't at shiva but the week following. We also paid for everything that we could that week.[/quote] 100k?! My grandpa had a 500 person funeral with more flowers than my wedding had and it was half that. [/quote]
