[QUOTE="Lothlorien, post: 79928, member: 1024"] I just brought my kids to Fla in June for my uncle's passing. They did not have a formal funeral. I don't think I would have brought them, if they did. They had a church service for him, with pictures. He was cremated. My kids did not see him dead. The service was good. They were well behaved. They didn't quite understand the scope of it, but Missy knew what had happened and why everyone was sad. It was a military funeral with a flag ceremony and gun salute. It was touching and I'm glad my kids were there for that. I was glad we brought the kids, because they got to spend time with their cousins and our family. Had they had a full formal funeral service, I would have opted to have someone stay with the kids during the wake and taken them to the repass later, to be with our family. [/QUOTE]
