Death
One of my best friend's brother died in a car crash because of street racing. Tomorrow I am going to his funeral with our friends and to be there for my friend. I really dont know what to wear and what I'm supposed to do there. Do I bring a gift. I feel really bad. He was onlt 17 years old. Please help.

*This is one of those things that you have to decide on your own sometimes. I have a friend who's father died recently-and trust me, your friend needs you! One thing you need to make sure of is to give your friend some space, let he/she come up to you, overcrowding may cause them to think about it more or cry more. I don't think you should bring a gift, maybe send a card and flowers, but being there for your friend should be enough. Remember, let them come to you.

wear black, like a black dress ( if your a girl ) or a black suit and black shoes, dont wear white or bright colors, its not a happy moment. also make or buy a card and write alot of stuff in it personal stuff or just like " im sorry for your loss..my deepest sympathy " etc, you can bring a gift but you probably shouldnt but if you decide to then do like a photo album or a frame and decorate the outside with things like " forever in our heart " " always in our prayers " " gardian angel " " heaven sent " etc. and bring flowers attached to it and a picture of him inside the frame...but you dont have to bring a gift, i dont think you should but if you wanted to do somthing like that...hope i helped...im sorry for the loss...

You don't have to wear black but don't wear anything bright and cheerful either.You will mostly sit and listen at a funeral, just do what everyone else does.No gift.Just being there for your friend is all thats required.

Wow, I'm sorry about your friend's brother.... For a funeral, just wear something nice, and black.. Like a skirt and top or dress or something.. You don't bring a gift.. You could bring flowers. Mostly what you do at funerals is remember the person who has died and provide support for the family and other people (besides you) who loved him. I hope I helped.

I'm sorry to hear that. Something black, not too atention seeking.
You don't have to go all in black but don't go for something like black and pink the best thing would be black and white.
You could bring along some flowers as a gesture too.
Good luck with it

Well, you'd probably want to wear black, it's a moruning, respectful color. You'd probably wouldn't want to bring a present because it might offend the other people in the family. Because ususally you bring a present to partys, they might think you are celebrating or something like that. Just bring flowers, roses probably.. I'm sorry to hear about your friend's death.

You wear something formal like a tux/dress. And you'll probably see some people you know there, so you can just talk to them and cry if you feel sad of course :( of course, its always nice to bring a gift. maybe bring a rose to put on his grave. I hope I helped, my friend's parents died so I know how you feel.

Hey, i'm so sorry to hear that. On what to wear, you have to wear dark colors -- black prefferably. And wear nice black clothes, more dressy acutally, but it doesnt matter. Gifts aren't necessary, because it isnt a party, but if you want bring flowers or something. Also, maybe make some food for you're best friends family. That's always nice, like a casserole, or something htey can just heat up, because usually they are too depressed to cook.

I'm so sorry to hear that. You're being a great friend by supporting your friend! Black is a very common funeral color, that's probably the best color to wear. People usually don't give gifts, unless it's flowers or a sympothy card. I wish your friend's family the best of luck.
Hope I helped!

I feel no pain for him. Street racing is illegal. He got what he deserved. Hes an idiot. Dont respect and idiots dead body. Spit on him for me.

i don't think you bring gifts to funerals because i have only been to one but u just say i am sooooooooo sorry for our loss.and if you feel like you need to cry it is ok to cry i lost my ant about a year ago and it was realy hard she was my dads little sis and i was realy close to her and i cried like a baby that just skind her knee and it was bleeding like heack but any way i hope this helps any more quetions e-mail me dotintexas@hotmail.com or just ask me .

I am soo sorry to hear about this. I'd reccomend wearing something plain, nothing too bright, maybe a white shirt and black pants, nothing to bring attention to yourself. I'm sure you being there will be enough, but you might feel better sending flowers to the family, or giving a small yet thoughtful donation in his name, to a fund.

Well, no dont bring a gift but you wear dark clothes (purple, black(which is a common color) or something. You just have to listen to people talk about him, and hear the priest..stuff like that. Hold your friend, cry with her, etc. I'm sorry about your friends loss! My prayers are with her & her family.

nice dark clothes..preferibly black, if not black, then either a dark blue or a gray..flowers, a card, a great big hug is what you should bring..just show your sympathy..

OK, I have been to funerals a lot so I can help you here. Wear nice clothes. At least the pants should be black if not everything. For a gift you should either bring a mass card or an arrangment of flowers. These are the proper gifts to bring if you are attending a funeral. You can also ask whoever is hosting the after-gatherubg if you can bring any food to help. I hope I helped! ♥ good luck
