First let me say I m sorry. Its hard to deal with the passing of people you care for.
I was 11 years old when I lost one of my friends who was 16. He was hit by a drunk driver and killed instantly. He was coming home from work on his bicycle and the driver claimed that James was swerving in and out of the yellow lines on the road. The driver of the car had way over the legal limit of alchohol and all he got was a heavy fine, 3 months in jail, probation for 1 year, and suspended licence for 2.
Back in june of 2001 one of my ex boyfriends who I still remained bestfriends with after we broke up was murdered. It really hit me hard. I had just talked to him the day before and we were planing on getting together on the weekend to have a few drinks.
I never went to either funeral for James or Pat. James I think for my age was best that I didnt go, and Pats I couldnt bring myself to go and It took me forever to get over the fact that I didnt and I regreted it for the longest time.
Go to the funeral for her parents and for her and for yourself to say your final goodbye. Dont worry about the other people that are there and the differences you have with them.
Going will help the healing process. Not going will prolong it and fill you with even more hate and more regret.
