Interesting that Summer mentioned her friend. I didn't get to DC until an hour after my brother passed away. One of life's little weird things.
I don't mind you asking. My brother died in Washington, DC. But he resided in Virginia, where he will be buried. You wouldn't believe the red tape required to 1) move a body over state lines; 2) get the death certificate from DC; and 3) get a cremation authorization from DC so that he could be cremated in VA. He is being cremated today, thanks to all the red tape. My parents called this one right all along.
Death is never convenient. Or easy. Or cheap. Sigh. I feel bad for Josh and his living family. It's so hard to coordinate. My sister lives in Indy, so I'm glad it was far enough out for us to make the plans.
Hugs, and more hugs to all of you.
