Thanks for all the kind words and advice. My great grandparents died when I was reallyyoung so I don't have much memory of them. My grandparents died when I was in 9th grade and in college, so although it was hard I understood better. I told my son it was ok to be sad for as long as he wanted and when he didn't feel sad anymore that was ok also. I do plan on talking about what he'll see at the funeral and what will happen so he is somewhat prepared. A coworker told me when she was about 11 she went to a funeral of a family member, her first. Nobody told her the casket would be open and she got there and freaked out.
