walk in, pay your respects, and walk out with pride and as an adult. That way it won't be you to act badly and you would have shown the man the respect he deserves

Go. Be kind. Don't expect anything from your family even if it hurts you. Pay your respect to your Great Grandpa, and greive with your grandparents. Just be sure to not do anything offensive, and hope that they have the same good taste that you do, monday will be about him not anybody else. So it shouldn't be a problem.

Go anyway. You are doing it for your grandfather, not the ones you do not speak to. It is sad that you do not speak to them though. Hopefully you all can come to terms with whatever happened and get over it and put it behind you all. Since you do talk to your grandparents, you really do need to go. There will be no second chance with this.

I say go and show your respects. Just because you and your parents don't speak, don't mean you cant be there for your grandma. This is your grandpa.......GO. If you don't you may regret it later. Never know this may be a breaking point for you and your parents, for this will be hard on them as well. Good luck and I'm sorry about your grandpa.

well, if you speak with your grandparents, then i would definitely go. even though u may not be on speaking terms with your family, monday will be a day of just paying your respect to your grandpa. remember that you're there for him.

Go to the funeral and pay your respects to your grandmother. Don't let anyone draw you into an argument, if someone starts discussing any problems tell them you don't feel this is the place for that. Be the bigger person, do what is right, go, talk to your grandmother and if it gets too uncomfortable just tell your grandmother you have to leave early.

you should go and it does not obligate you to speak to anyone . you are there to pay your respects not socialise . Leave when the funeral is over and you have done your part . I am sorry for your loss .
