Bit of a gut-punch: I was just at a catholic funeral yesterday, for a member of my partner's family, and this was the first thing on the discussion page when I looked at it today.

My thoughts, on seeing the coffin and hearing pretty but false comforts, were something along the lines of: This should not be. But I said nothing. I'm kind of glad that someone else somewhere did, if subtly.

You have my sympathies and admiration.
