She was the first one in the family that I informed about my sexuality when I was in high school. She was very accepting of me and she never told my father.
She died because she was an alcoholic and she wasted away because she would not listen to medical advice to stop drinking.
I am not in contact with my family. My boyfriend has contact with some of them on Facebook. My sister informed him that my stepmother died.
I do not know if I want to attend the funeral or not. I believe I might be able to ignore my father at the funeral, but I honestly do not want to see him. Besides, it will be a religious ceremony, and I am reticent in that respect as well.
After all, must I be there to respect the life and memory of that individual? Absolutely not.
