His funeral is tomorrow, and I want to know what is appropriate, as far as flowers, cards etc are concerned? is there any sort of traditional protocol I should follow?
My turkish boyfriends father just passed away, what do i do for the funeral?
First, my condolences to you and your boyfriend.Though the occasion is a sad one, the answer is simple.Tell your boyfriend how sorry you are that he lost his father, that you love him and know he is in a lot of pain and probably confused, and to tell you how you can help ease his sorrow.Remember even if is Turkish, he is still a human being with a heart that is in mourning.Being there for him any way that helps him is more important than the protocols i.e flowers, cards, etc.
Reply:Sending cards or flowers isn%26#039;t really common here. As for what you can do...try to be there. Ask the family if they need anything. You can even cook for them if you know how to cook Turkish food. Or you can even make and serve tea or coffee to the visitors.
If you don%26#039;t feel comfortable doing these, just be there and try to share their sorrow. That will do.
Reply:personally if it was my case I%26#039;d want my lover to be there for me, hold me confort me, and if you weren%26#039;t planning on it go to the funeral and to the wake with him,,
as for the flowers and card,,it would be really secondary compared to you being there for him
