When a webmaster Dies - would you go

[Titan]

i know when your working with people on a day to day basis you get to know them and become friends - if one of your webmaster friends happened to die would you attend the funeral -

ive seen a lot of threads lately about people other people have known passing on and was wondering - do you actually care enough about the person to attend or send on wishes to his family or flowers or whatevet it is you feel is appropriate

[grimm]

it would depend on the nature of the relationship, and of course how appropriate your presence would be.


most that i know personally i would attend in an instant. some i would be on the phone with the airlines before thinking about it

There's 5 people that post here that if something happend to them, yes I'd feel I needed to be there!

I am not even going to my own funeral!!!

My wife, ( god forbid my kids) and my mother , that is it for my funeral quota.

NO one else .

No friend, no extended family, nope nada, not me, aint going !

I second that!

If I was readily available to go I would in an instant. In some cases, like now, I am unable to leave due to my wife being ready to pop anyday.

With that said, I will do my best to send flowers and let those effected know I am unable to attend.

I hate funerals. However, honoring a loved one or a friend is not about what I like, It's about paying respects. I have lost loved ones before and those who attended the funeral meant a lot to me. Some people I never met face to face... Quite a few I still don't know who they are... but I do know they were from the industry.

Funerals aren't - or shouldn't be - about death and dying. They're a celebration of someone's life so after the formality of the service it really should be party time.

Live life. Celebrate life. Always.

Some people's timing is uncanny. :rolleyes:
