Times -Advocate, January 30, 1985 Page 23 What Every Family Should Know ONTARIO FUNERAL SERVICE ASSOCIATION HOW CAN ONE FACE THEM? Having failed to attend a friend's funeral service, one may ex- perience great difficulty in facing members of the bereaved family without embarrassment. So, too, may members of the deceased's family find it hard to face some one who did not pay their respects of the funeral service, the wake or other form of visitation. To avoid such embrassment, a person who could not attend the services ought tomake a personatcondotence call afterwards. He should also explain to the family why he could not attend. Although one must make these decisions individually, as the situation requires, it must be pointed out that funeral atten- dance and condolence calls are social responsibilities. We oc- casionally observe this "loss of friendship" when a simple phone call might have prevented the hurt feelings. If you are not clear about visitation etiquette or duties, feel free to call on us for assistance. We will be pleased to help you at any time.
