I have disowned everyone in my life, family included, who have embraced this disgraceful human being. It's not a political thing. It's a human decency thing. If you support scum then you are scum.

I am very sorry that you lost someone who mattered to you. Celebrate his life and mourn his death in the way that comforts you the most.

I would probably do the same as you, condolences.

Thank you all for your kind words. Last night I found myself lamenting with my 19yo that it's too bad mourning veils are no longer a thing. I could wear one to slip in and out of the funeral unnoticed. Ah well.

The moment you lost your uncle I'm sure you felt as bad as you were ever going too. your uncle is the only one who won't notice you there and the only reason you feel bad. you don't have to prove to anyone how much you do or don't care as you already know.

Do your thing. Ceremonies are for the living, not the dead. If the dead is your concern, honor him however you feel appropriate.

If it’s the living, that’s a whole separate matter

I am sorry for your loss. Life must go on. Do what your conscience dictates, mourn your way, your style.

Do what you feel you need to do. I'm sorry for your loss. When my mom passed last year I decided to sever ties with my siblings. Sometimes it's necessary for your own well being. Xoxo. ♥

We know he’ll never know … so it’s what feels right to you. I also think it’s healthy, if uncomfortable and unfortunate.. to cut our ties with trump supporters, wherever they pop up in our lives. I know a lot of folks who’ve purged their facebook ‘friends’ and relatives, too; as have I. And, I’ve cousins of that same ilk.. Stay strong ~

I am estranged from my family as well and that's hard. I am very sorry for your loss.
