Dear Abby
DEAR ABBY: My friend of 50 years passed away a few months ago. I sent a fruit basket to her family and tried calling, but I was unable to get through. I couldn’t reach them via email or text either. I also sent a sympathy card. I heard nothing back from her husband or the daughter I am closest to. She’s my godchild, and I was always involved in her life.
Nobody contacted me to tell me where they were going to have her wake. Luckily, I found out, so I did attend. Her family had tables set up with photos, including one with photos from her teenage years. A few pictures of her and another one of her friends from that period were on the table, but none included me.
