If the spouse of somebody you worked with died, but you never met the spouse, would you go to the wake?Yes, but this is a different issue unless they knew Mrs Pesky.

Most Wakes and Funerals aren't about the guy in the casket...its about everybody else thats still with us
Agree with the last statement. But a hand written note from someone who didn't attend the wake discussing the relationship w/the deceased means more than spending 10 min. at a wake.

I'm going for a quick bike ride. Now that Lance has lost his 7 TDFs (That is Toure De France) you never know what they're going to do w/the titles.
