My uncle died this morning. He was supposed to be at my fathers funeral, but he passed away sometime during the night. My father was his older brother.
My uncle was fighting cancer but I thought that it was under control.
Now I have another funeral on Sunday and overlapping shiva duties. I am attending a shiva at my sisters as one of the bereaved, and I will try to attend the shiva for my uncle to pay my respects, especially since his family had to travel to come to my fathers funeral.
There will probably be mourners services at both locations Sunday and Monday.
