I'm sorry to hear you lost a close friend.
I pick and choose to attend services based on the person that needs the support.
As far as for close loved ones, I did attend my aunt's funeral a couple of years ago. It sucked and was weird to connect with relatives I don't like or even despise. Making nice like, "We don't see each other enough..." "Call me when you're in town.." all that bullshit.
I've been learning that I have to do something to commemorate milestones in life, whatever that means.
