Would you be honest enough to say what you really think at someone's funeral?
Years ago i met a family , the mother was lovely the kids fine but the father was a real sod, hit the mother, he used to come home drunk with some guys he met at the pub and then force the old lady to kiss them, when she refused he’d hit her in the ribs so she often had broken ribs.
Anyway this horrible man died. Do you know not one person said he was a lowdown rubbish, they all said he was so kind, so sweet, i was the only one who said what i really thought about him and they did not appreciate it. Do you think saying nice things about a sod once he has pegged it will pave his way to the large garden in the sky. I don’t thiiiinnnkkkk soooo. What is your opinion.
Putting it bluntly he sounded a twat and died a twat end of, literally for him!!!

You were right.

What would it accomplish other than hurting his family who you don’t really have a beef with anyway.

Why did you go to the man’s funeral if you didn’t like him? If you went for the family then you should just be quiet I really don’t think they want to hear bad things about him right at this time.

I think theres a time and place.
If you cant say anything nice, say nowt.
Steph j | Aug 21, 2007
I agree with silkstockings I wouldn’t have gone. You can make your feelings known if people ask you why you didn’t .

if i really hated him or her then i probably wouldnt go. I think the funeral is as much for the family to come together and grieve at their loss, and even though he maybe a total monster, sometimes families may find it easier to see him as a good person really who was just troubled etc. Grief does make people see things diffrent and maybe the family thought it was some sort of closure. Funerals are bad enough at the best of times anyway, and emotions run high and things get said. I would just keep away if i thought i would say something which maybe wasnt welcomed. My nan always said once someone has died, whatever wrongs they did in the world, they have to face the big man in the sky. Maybe a funeral was the wrong place to say it, but then again, i can see why you shouldn’t go and say he was a gent if he was not.

if you dont like someone you dont go to the funeral
shirley v | Aug 21, 2007
No, it would be very rude.
If I didn’t like the person I wouldn’t attend the funeral.
That guy might have been an horrible person but I bet you there will be people who will miss him a lot and to say nasty things about him on the last chance people have to say goodbye is just wrong.

Dear me, I hope you didn’t get up and say a eulogy. LOL
No, saying nice things about a mean person will not determine his fate at the big gate.
I’m assuming that you attended the funeral because you liked his family. I know, it is difficult to hear all those mushy nice things that people say to describe a person that was anything but nice, but everyone that knew him was aware that you spoke the truth. It just wasn’t a good time or place to to bring up.

100% correct. I’ve done exactly the same thing. I’d no choice - I had to go to the funeral. But there were a few people there who used to talk about this guy and then when he snuffed it, he was suddenly a different person. Not on your life - I said what I’d said when he was alive - and I’d also said it to his face so I wasn’t being hypocritical either. Once a bastard always a bastard - death doesn’t change things!

we don’t speak bad of the departed.
abenezerscroogexxx | Aug 21, 2007
No, but I’d happily spit and dance on his grave once he was buried.
StingRay | Aug 21, 2007
my step father is all you said and more when he dies it will be a nice day for me, a kind of release, but i wouldnt attend his funeral, i hate him so much
verbalkint | Aug 22, 2007
I just wouldn’t go.
I hate this fascination some people have with going to every funeral they can - they are a thing I avoid at all costs to be honest.
I think they are personal things and I would be annoyed if people that didn’t even like me, just knew me, turned up!
Heather mk2 | Aug 22, 2007
It seems to me you were more concerned with parading your self styled honesty like a badge of courage then being concerned with the family of the deceased. People who claim the moral high ground by claiming to be "honest" do not usually stand up to scrutiny and I find that their "honesty" is used only when adventageous or convienient for them. You can never know the real story behind peoples lives, and I would be careful about sitting in judgement of others. I wonder what people will say at your funeral.
