				Death of father-in-law's dad...what to do?
			 
 My wife's grandfather passed away. He had been sick for a good while so it was not a surprise. Due to work etc we may not be able to make the funeral. We will try, though.
 I don't know what the protocol is in the US. In my native country, I would send a thing called "adressi" which is a large, distinguished-looking sympathy card, whether or not I could attend the funeral. But in the States, I don't know what is appropriate.
 
 Especially since he was my wife's grandfather, hence making him "sort of" my family as well, through my wife anyway.
 
 I don't know what kind of gesture would be warranted and not over-the-top, to my wife's parents and her grandmother.
