Hello All,
It was my late Mum’s funeral yesterday.
She was of an advanced age and it was a small gathering as so many of her contemporaries had pre deceased her.
It was a lovely service though and everyone who mattered was there or represented by other family.
We decided not to hold a wake.
my uncle and a cousin had travelled a long way and stayed over the night before. We were not holding a wake but I’d have been happy to go for a meal with them but when I asked I was told they were going straight back.
we parted company amicably.
However, not long afterwards I received what I can only describe as a poison pen via a text from my Aunty who hadn’t attended the funeral.
I was shocked at the absolute bile thrust at me on the day I’d buried my mother and all over a cup of tea!
