My grandfather passed away this morning. He's been sick for a long time and he's been in and out of the hospital for the past several months so the news wasn't a shock. He's finally free from pain. I was supposed to move into the new house today but I have to wait until tomorrow, which isn't really a problem.

My grandfather had 8 children (ages 29 - 55 years old) with a woman he was married to for over 55 years. My grandparents raised their children catholic and we all went to church on Sundays. Two of their sons do not want to attend their father's funeral because grandma is having a Christian ceremony, as expected. Everyone is pissed off at them and couldn't believe that they would put religious differences above respect and love for their father.

I am having a difficult time understanding this. How can people think like this? What kind of people would refuse to attend a funeral just because they do not agree with the type of ceremony being held? I mean it is shocking to me because they are, or I thought they were such cool people. I really respected them.
