I just attended my MIL's funeral. She and her husband were best friends with another family for decades, like vacation together, godparents, etc, but at some point a few years ago the other family woman got really ****y and stopped talking to my MIL. The only one of that family that showed up for any of the services, after a decades-long best friendship, was one of their sons. Would have been nice if one or both of the adults would have been there for my FIL.
Funerals aren't for the dead, they're for the living survivors. Decide accordingly.
