Now, on arrival, what to we expect? is there a reception line or something? I don't know that we'll make the visitation. Or will we just slip into a back row and meet the relatives after? I'm off to get dressed, I'll be back for your answers in a few minutes, thanks 
Have decided to take his DS to play on the way there and back, knowing that he can get to his DS after something often helps him concentrate. |
If you're going straight to the funeral, you will probably be greeted and seated. Afterwards, people go to their cars to head to the cemetary. Not everyone goes to the cemetary. After that there is typically a church or a home where everyone meets and eats and talks. After all the agony leading up to the death, and the stress of the funeral...I find it is usually an uplifting thing. People will talk about good things they remember, have a laugh or two.
Play it by ear...just being there is all you really need to do.
