Quote: I don't know if he'll be inviting me to whatever service they have for him. I think he might, and I'd like to go. BUT I don't think I can stand to go if his GF is there. It would already be an emotional day. I don't want to seem manipulative, but I guess if he asks me, that is what I'll say (in a gentle way). I can see how he might want her to be there to support him, but she didn't know Brother. I would like to speak at his service, if asked. This may all be moot, because maybe he won't ask me or they won't have a service, but I've been turning it around in my mind. If he needs to bring GF, I can just have a service for BIL in my mind.
You should speak! It doesn't matter if GF is there or not. You should speak! Ron
