We live in Australia and DH's Mum is coming to to spend 3 weeks over Christmas with us. She leaves the UK on Saturday.
She called us very upset on Tuesday night to tell us that her Father (DH's Grandad) had just passed away. His passing wasn't completely unexpected as he has been very poorly for many years - but still sad none the less. I have been with DH for 7 yrs and was never able to hold a conversation with his Grandad in that time.
MIL is not changing her travel plans to see us but will now obviously miss his funeral. I am now trying to think of a way in which we can pay our respects and say goodbye. None of us are church goers so I don't think a church visit would be appropriate. We also have DD4yo and DS 1yo who will be with us.
Does anyone have any suggestions of what we can do? Thank you!
