I don’t know how to put it exactly, but the Christian funeral seems to be about a direct denial of what is obviously an emotionally devastating event. I grew up Catholic, and served as an altar boy at funerals, and it was just the same formula repeated over and over. I’m sure you’re not the only one who was there who didn’t believe the story, you were just being honest about your emotions. That’s why I think communities really help. Sorry I don’t have any recommendations on putting one together with a busy schedule.
