I respect both of you, but I just can't agree. We all deal with grief in different ways. There is different tradition and ritual. There is some kind of saying, which I don't remember, that says when it goes beyond crying, you have to laugh. That doesn't work for me, but I won't call it wrong. The concept of food we are seeing here doesn't work for you, or maybe just isn't in your tradition. That doesn't mean it is wrong. I have been through a couple of funeral experiences that were heavily involved with food, one Japanese Buddhist and one Filipino. These both combined respect for the dead with the idea that the living needed to eat to remain healthy and able to deal with what they needed to. -- Dan Abel Petaluma, California, USA |

Of the funerals I have attended in my life, there has always been food, of which quality and quantity varied. It was enjoyed by all and especially appreciated by the family. There was often humor and a glimpse of the lighter side of the deceased and their family. I'm all for that, in whatever manner a family may wish to express it. However, most funerals are relatively private affairs, regardless of the number of people attending. What I find strange is the "publishing", discussion, and critique of the meals served, even comparing one funeral meal to others. In a way, I find it disrespectful to the deceased and their famly. Now, if someone wants to write such things about the funeral of their husband, wife, or children, then it's *their* affair and they're welcome to do so. Obviously, those who write about the former are not likely to write about the latter. -- Wayne Boatwright Õ¿Õ¬ ________________________________________ Okay, okay, I take it back! UnScrew you! |

I guess if you read Usenet long >enough, you'll eventually hear everything. :-) I don't think it is unusual, really. There is even a book about it in the south: "Being Dead is No Excuse : The Official Southern Ladies Guide to Hosting the Perfect Funeral" http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/140...lance&n=283155 "From Publishers Weekly Starred Review. Metcalfe, a lifelong Southerner who's been hiding out in the social circles of Greenville, Miss., exposes the culinary and cultural last rites of the deep South in a fashion that is as sidesplitting as it is politically incorrect, as sincere as it is backstabbingly brutal. She is capably aided by Hays, a "recovering gossip columnist" from Washington, D.C. Residents of the Mississippi Delta, where "polishing silver is the southern lady's version of grief therapy," take their comfort food semiseriously, be it traditional Pickled Shrimp, Liketa Died Potatoes (which incorporate both cheddar cheese and canned cheddar cheese soup) or cream cheese–laden Pecan Tassies. Nobody would be caught dead without Tomato Aspic at the funeral, and St. James' Cranberry Congealed Salad topped with mayonnaise is the dessert of choice. An entire chapter is devoted to stuffed eggs, and another is dedicated to dishes that use canned soup as their base ("Nothing whispers sympathy quite like a frozen-pea casserole with canned bean sprouts and mushroom soup"). A lengthy discourse on "The Methodist Ladies vs. the Episcopal Ladies" is laugh-out-loud funny in its contrast of customs and cuisines and its consideration of the consolation of a "nice, stiff cocktail." And many Greenville residents, alive and deceased, drop by for a howdy, including poor Maribell Wilson, who made the mistake of driving her daddy's ashes home with the windows down." I know that around here, it is traditional among many, especially Italians (this may be just my part of NJ), to go to a restaurant after the funeral for a luncheon...it is known as a "repast." Sad though a funeral can be, it should also celebrate the life of the one who has passed on. I have been to repasts that were filled with jokes, stories and even songs about the deceased. As a Jew, the tradition (no religious law, just tradition around here) is to have the mourners come back to the house for a meal. Often the family then sits "shivah," a period of mourning for 3 to 7 days during which they are not supposed to tend to themselves, but depend upon the kindness of friends and family who bring or send over food for the family and enough for visitors during the mourning period. Sometimes the company of the mourners and those who wish to pay respects helps the immediate family get through the roughest time among supportive family and friends. It can make push back those first "alone" house after the hubbub fades and the sadness hits so very hard. When someone is around to hand a plate of food to a person who is so sad, and just helps keep them dwelling a bit more in this world rather than the next, it can help some folks cope. Each of us grieves in our own way, of course, and some take comfort in family or ethnic or religious tradition and others like to be alone or with only those closest to them. Boron |

I'm not questioning nor criticizing that, but I do not think that was what was done here. Obviously, there are different opinions amongst those here. Not surprising. I'm only expressing mine. -- Wayne Boatwright o¿o ____________________ BIOYA |

I have been to one such Italian "repast". I knew the family very well, The meal was held at a popular Italian restaurant that the deceased had always enjoyed. There was much celebrating, sharing, laughing, and tribute. It was a lovely way to remember the person. > As a Jew, the tradition (no religious law, just tradition around here) > is to have the mourners come back to the house for a meal.

I don't doubt this in the least. It's often very helpful, and aids in a return to some degree of normalcy. A few days after my dad passed away, my mother wanted to go shopping, not because she wanted or needed anything, but because it helped her move forward and reinforce that life does continue. > Each of us grieves in our own way, of course, and some take comfort in > family or ethnic or religious tradition and others like to be alone or > with only those closest to them. You're absolutely right. I am not questioning anything that you wrote. I simply don't agree that the "dead threads" here were in the same spirit. Apparently I am still failing to make myself clear. Thanks, Boron. -- Wayne Boatwright o¿o ____________________ BIOYA |

"-) And, what the hey, it's about FOOD -- what a novel concept here.

The way it used to be in this neck of the woods (it wasn't a requirement; it was the custom). "-) I'm thinking that of the 20 people I'd expect to be interested in attending, at least half would come across with at least a Jell-o salad or a hotdish. Maybe some bars, even. If I get information about lead time, shoot -- maybe I'll cook it myself and stash it in the freezer. It'll save Pastorio some work. :-) Do you know Ole and Lena? They're the fictional (hah!) subjects of a spate of jokes in these parts -- always told in your best Scandinavian dialect. I've always liked this one: Ole was feeling poorly and went to the doctor for a physical. As he was getting dressed the doctor came in and said "I am sorry Ole, but you are very sick and have only a few weeks to live". Ole went home with a heavy heart to tell Lena the news. After Ole told Lena he went upstairs to bed and Lena went to the kitchen. Soon a heavenly aroma came from the kitchen. Lena was making his favorite cookies! "Oh, dat Lena!" he thought as his eyes misted, and climbed out of bed and went into the kitchen and saw all his favorite treats -- cookies, tea rings and breads cooling on the sideboard and on the dining room table. Doncha know he reached for a cookie and Lena slapped his hand away and said "Get avay, Ole! Goldarnit, dese cookies aren't for you, dere for da funeral!" (*^;^*) Dat Lena's a card, too! -- http://www.jamlady.eboard.com, updated 1-27-2006, The Best Dead Spread Yet |

I know we are all entitled to our own opinions, but did cathy (and Wayne) just call those who disagreed with them ignoramuses? Maybe I misunderstood the context. As for this particular review, the food was catered. I see nothing wrong with a critique of a caterer's food, just because it was served at a funeral. Stacia |

I handle strong emotions with disrespect and/or humour, so I find nothing wrong with the turn of phrase in this thread. Not that I don't honor the dead...I place flowers on my mom's grave still after 20 yrs and don't plan on stopping. But death is part of everyone's life and should be explored and excepted. If comparing foods helps somebody figure out what they'll do for their's or for a loved one's to make it fit their desires or make it more special, so be it. -- The eyes are the mirrors.... But the ears...Ah the ears. The ears keep the hat up. |

Easy to search for. O&L joke books are common around here in small gift shops. Heavy Scandinavian-ancestor population. Ole and Lena OB Food: Ole came home early from his job at the pickle factory. Lena was surprised to see him -- his head was hanging and he wasn't moving very fast. "Ole, vhat happened to you? Vhy are you home so early?" "Oh, Lena, I got fired. (He was very embarrassed.)

He had a terminal illness and would be dead within 16 hours. She was devastated by the news and asked if there was anything he wanted. He wasn't very hungry, but he thought they should make love one last time before his passed on. So off they went to the bedroom. Later on in the evening he was feeling a little frisky and asked his wife if they could do it again. So off they went to the bedroom and did it again. Then at bed time he was feeling frisky again. After making love for the third time they fell asleep. He woke up at 3 am feeling frisky. He tapped her on the shoulder and and suggested that they do it again. She wasn't very receptive to the idea and he pleaded that it might be the last chance he has to have sex . She answered "Fine for you. You don't have to get up in the morning." |

I remember when it was customary for people going to a funeral to take a plate of sandwiches, a casserole, some cookies, cake or something to a funeral. My wife's church caters funerals all the time. The women's group charges a set amount per person depending on whether they are having just tea and coffee or if it will include sandwiches, cookies and veggie plates etc. Personally, I think it is a bum deal for the ladies. They pay for the ingredients out of their own pockets. The women's group collects the money and uses it to buy things for the church. Like many organizations, it is usually a small group of members who belong to the group, so they are the people who are always having to provide the goods at their own expense and do all the work. My mother didn't mind doing it, but what did it for her was when there were leftovers and the family didn't want them. The same people who had paid for the ingredients and provided the labour were expected to take them home..... and to pay for what they took. |

Personally, I think the system sucks. It's nice that there are people in the church who will provide to food and do the work. That part of it is great. What I object to is money being charged and going to the church instead of being used to reimburse the people who provided it. It gets a little tricky sometimes. They expect an estimate, and they charge on the estimate, more if there are more people than anticipated, even though there is no extra food prepared at the last minute for the extras. There is no rebate if you have fewer people showing up than anticipated. Who is to know how many people will show up for a funeral? There were twice as many people at my father's memorial service than the church could hold. We had no idea that so many people would come. Then there is the matter of the receptions being held in churches where the person was not even a member. It's nice that there is a group of women who will donate the stuff as part of a community effort, but when they start dealing with outsiders I think these volunteers are being abused. |

I use the word "catered" to mean food and service brought in by a company that charges the hosts and does that for a living. So a catered affair might be a wedding or anniversary party where the hosts don't wish to do the cooking themselves. Instead, they pay the caterers to do the cooking, serving and clean-up. Guests are not charged and not expected to bring a dish. With that in mind, I agree that a catered funeral strikes me as weird. I've been to one and thought it weird at the time (about 12 years ago). Instead of friends and family comforting one another, it felt like a cocktail party-- with great food, by the way. I don't associate catered funerals with one part of the country or one ethnic group. I just sort of assumed it was something odd that this one family did. Now if a friend of the family picks up a platter of food at a restaurant to bring to the grieving family's home, that, to me is another matter. It strikes me as rather sweet. I should make this clear: I'm not knocking other people's customs (or maybe I am a little). The idea of a catered funeral was odd to me, and I'm sure I wouldn't do it that way, but that's the way this family wanted it. Who am I to object? --Lia |

Not the Jam Mistress, but our own > Jewish old ladies A lot of the Italian meals after a funeral that I've attended in NY (always been in the home) have been catered. It simplifies things for the organizer, and also we've enjoyed a lot of good food. Liquor (perhaps in excess, lol) is always de rigeur. It ends up being quite the event to catch up with long lost friends and relatives. The one Jewish ceremony I attended, out in Hewlett on LI, we went to a deli for lunch after. Everyone ordered what they wanted and the "host" picked up the tab. Goomba |

I don't know if that is a Canadian thing, or peculiar to your wife's church, or congregation or what, but I've never, ever heard of a church group charging money to bring food to a funeral. Even for weddings, the most was a charge for use of the dishes. People just organize for the occasion, or there is a ministry that is already organized to handle things like that and they do it.

There was a small kitchen situated in one corner of the hall, like an open plan family room. ......Sharon |

Who am I to object? > > > --Lia > There is such a thin line when it comes to something like this. When is something catered and when is it not? If I telephone Zabar's and order several platters of lox and herring and white fish and sturgeon, as almost all mourners in this neighborhood do, it is not considered a catered affair. If, on the other hand, I telephone the restaurant down the block and order hot and cold appetizers instead, it most likely would be considered a catered meal. A real difference or just a matter of semantics? To me, both are right. The time when friends bought everything and prepared it while the burial was going on in the cemetery in the suburbs is long gone. The friends may still prepare everything, but the family will have ordered from either Zabar's or the corner restaurant. It is a very expensive proposition, if you want to do it right and you no longer expect others to pay for it. Also, you want whatever is consumed in you home, to be just so. When the mourners come back, they will partake of the meal and may discuss the food. If something is good, they will praise the dish. If something is not, they will also talk about it. It's human nature. Lia, if you are Jewish, you will know what I mean. The food is an article of conversation, as you are not supposed to talk about the departed's illness and suffering. You talk about other things as well, but for this occasion, food is important. Eating gives you something to do and there is nothing wrong in saying afterwards that either the food that was served was good or bad or not enough or too much. We all do it, we just have never had the opportunity to post about it or to have been in a position where we could compare so many Dead Spreads we attended in such a short time. |

A friend of mine who had been living out of the country for a long time was interred at a local cemetery. My wife looked after the arrangements at this end. She arranged for the minister of her church to conduct the service and for a reception to be held at the church hall. The church womens group does coffee, tea, sandwiches and goodies. The widow wanted to provide a lunch buffet. My wife ordered cheese and meat platters and salads from a local deli and cookies and tarts from a woman who caters baked foods. Everything was delivered to the church the morning of the service and taken care of by the woman's group. The women's group received a cheque for the coffee and tea service and extra was thrown in for looking after the other stuff for us. In my books, that is catered. It didn't seem odd at all. When my bother died, my mother held a wake / reception back at the house. She contacted a local deli and had trays of meat, cheeses, fruit, and baked goods delivered...... catered. > > > Now if a friend of the family picks up a platter of food at a restaurant > to bring to the grieving family's home, that, to me is another matter. > It strikes me as rather sweet. > > I should make this clear: I'm not knocking other people's customs (or > maybe I am a little).

The church charges no rent for the hall. It charges for a set fee per person for coffee, tea and juice. It charges another set fee per person for sandwiches, veggie plates and desserts . Those things are all provided by the members of the women's group. IIRC correctly it is $1.25 per person for drinks only or $4.25 for "the works". In the case of the reception after my friend's interment service, they charged only for the drinks. The food was prepared and delivered by a local deli and a baker. The women's group set everything up, provided dishes and cleaned up. |
