I have family-in-law that I dont want to see for the rest of my life. If my husband would die one day is there any way I proceed the funeral of my husband through the church but dont see my FIL as much as possible? e.g. hiring someone to communicating with them

slavetofilofax, is what you were saying you would attend your law's funeral only if the parents died at the same time?

Traditionally the bereaved talks to everyone as they leave. But I have been to funerals where the principal bereaved person is far too grief stricken to do this and so doesn't. Its easy to avoid people at funerals if you have family/friends who will help you do this.

No, I would attend either of their funerals, even if they died separately. As long as dh wanted me to.

I have no desire to see either of them, but I think when someone dies, you have to put personal grudges aside sometimes. My husband would be my priority if one of his parents died, so I would do whatever he wanted me to.
