DEAR ABBY: My 14-year-old son recently passed away and I was amazed at how rude people can be at a time like that.
Several people sent plants to the mortuary with a note for certain people to take the plants home with them. One family even sent a plant with a note on it asking that the plant be returned to their home after the funeral!
The funeral director told us that this was becoming a real problem for them as it was causing a great many hurt feelings.
Abby, please tell your readers if they want funeral flowers given to a certain person, they should have the flowers sent to that person's home, not to the funeral home. A grieving person doesn't need any more pain. -- GRIEVING IN BUFORD, GA.
