Suggestions for Funeral Attendees

I went to my first evening funeral tonight. I didn't know there was such a thing, but I guess you have to take what's available. I'm not a frequent funeral attendee, as a matter of fact, I'd rather not. But the older I get, I'm sure, the more I'll be going. I noticed something about the other people sitting around me, and it started me thinking about the unwritten rules of funerals when I was growing up. 1. Ladies, do NOT wear perfume, cologne, eau de toillete, etc. In a closed in area, it flat out stinks. 2. The same goes for the gentlemen. I'm sure you think your after shave and/or cologne is alluring to women, but NOT at a funeral. 3. Cocktail dresses are not appropriate for a funeral. Especially the black velvet, or deep cleavage sort. Of course, sloppy capris don't cut it either. 4. A coat and tie don't seem to be mandatory anymore, however, blue jeans and a t-shirt with a beer logo isn't exactly funeral attire. I guess I'm old fashioned, but I think paying your respects to the deceased, means just that... showing respect. Just my opinion.
