The passing of Charlie's mother


Although it happened Sunday, the funeral for Charlie's mother is on Thursday with the wake being tomorrow.
Charlie said he doesn't expect everyone to show up - it will be a big group of family from all over the place.
The graveside services will be a private family-only event. He also said prior to her death, his mother chose every option available for her funeral so this will be a very long ceremony indeed. He joked that this was her final way of getting back at the family.

Relatives are coming from out of state and everyone is choosing hotels to stay in rather than inconvenience the family.
He said there's so much food, his father won't have to cook for a year.
I think I will still send flowers to the cemetary (whenever I get the name - he didn't remember where she's being laid to rest) or the church.
