A friend died a couple of days ago. What to do ?

Question

We wern't very close, but I had him down as a "mate"

He moved about 70 miles away about 7 years ago.

I will extend my sypathies to family, but the beggar was a heavy smoker & boozer, so it was on the cards.

Should I go to the funeral?

I seem to be attending more funerals than weddings these days, so what to do ?

Answer 1

you are getting...that's what it means.

Answer 2

Up to you but I suspect you will feel bad later if you don't go and say your final goodbyes.

Answer 3

eh, go to the funerals, don't mourn any deaths, life is wasted on the living anyway.

Answer 4

I'm sorry to hear that. However, I do think you should go to the funeral to pay your respects. You knew him and he was part of your life, even if he wasn't a close friend, it's the right thing to do.

It must be hard for you to be attending a lot of funerals lately, but that's life for you. People die and people are born, it's nature. I guess we just have to be strong, face it and try to move on with our lives.

Best of luck :)
