Have you ever been to a funeral?

[Cruise Control]

Yeah, my mom made me leave my Grandfathers funeral since I did not convey a feeling of sorrow.

[Mirage]

I have. My granddad and a friend. I was very young when my granddad died, but I remember it. It didn't affect me too much because I didn't quite understand this death thing, but I cried for hours when my friend died 5 years ago or so. It still hurts just mentioning it here on a message board. It was kinda strange at his funeral though. I was pretty much done crying several days before the funeral, but at the funeral I had a bit of a cold, so it seemed like I was a lot more moved than I actually was.

I was also at the funerals for my two great great aunts. However, they didn't make me feel as terrible as I did with when my friend died... Probably because they didn't get their life stolen in a motorcycle accident at the age of 18 :(.

I’ve been to my great-grandfather’s funeral, my great-aunt’s funeral, an uncle’s funeral, a family friend’s funeral, another family friend’s funeral, and one of my friend’s funeral. I’m pretty sure that’s all of them, and in chronological order.

It is my dream to CREATE NANNY MANUS' funeral for him and attend it myself.

[Spammerman]

No.

I've been to three. The first one I went to happened when I was two, so I don't remember it. My great-grandfather died when I was eight. I cried. My great grandmother (his wife) died when I was eighteen. I didn't cry until a while after it happened. That scared me, that it took me so long to cry. It happens, I reckon.

I've been to a few, well two funerals and a lot of calling hours. My Grandpa and best friend are the only two funerals I've been to.

[Leeza]

I've been to more funerals for family and friends than I care to count or discuss on an FF site.

[Savern Volaco]

two in two months, grandpa uncle...I was smiling the whole time, why I scare my self thinking about it.

[The Real Dark Messenger]

I have been to 11... it's never fun of course, but I have been fairly calm most of the time.

[Bart's Friend Milhouse]

I went to a ceremonial when my friend died but we weren't allowed to go to the crematorium, that was strictly for the family

[Resha]

I have been to one. I couldn't cry. :o I dunno why!

[41-Inches-Wide]

I cried at my godmother's funeral. It was just too sad and she was such a kind woman.

[Roto13]

My first experience with death was with my grandmother when I was 9. I went to her wake, took one look at her body, and burst into tears so I didn't go to the funeral.

The next time was three weeks later, with her youngest son. I was like "What? Two deaths in three weeks? Are you [img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img][img]/xxx.gif[/img]ting me?" and I didn't go to that one either.

The next one was a few years later with my great aunt but I was... out of town or something. That doesn't sound right. I didn't like her anyway.

The last one was in February of this year when my grandfather died. I went to the wake and the funeral this time, and I handled myself quite well (because I was, you know, 20 and not 9). It was really cold and snowy and windy, and everyone was crying but me. Come to think of it, I didn't cry at the wake either. Wow, that's quite the contrast isn't it?

[Breine]

Yes, I attented my grandfather's funeral when he died back in 1995 - I was only seven at the time so I don't really remember that much (other than the fact that it was extremely sad).

I also went to one of my friend's father's funeral a couple of years ago.


... Those are the only ones I can remember I've been to.
