The Hatfields and McCoys

Otherwise known as my hubby's family. Dan's step grandfather died on Friday night. The funeral is Wed. His grandmother left 3 of her son's names, their children and grandchildrens name completely out of the obituary. They are understandably hurt and here we are stuck in the middle. Danged if you do and danged if you don't. Dan is supposed to be a pall bearer, but he is upset with his grandma too because of what she did. If she denies that his dad exists, isn't she also denying him and our children. There is a long history to this squabble that led to them being omited and we have done are darndest to stay out of it. We feel like we need to go because it is his grandfather but the drama is horrible and we feel like we are betraying his dad and the others.
