Osiris-Funeral request

[Nightryder]

I posted in the other thread also but I wanted everyone who is going to be aware.
DO NOT WEAR BLACK to either service just passing the information along.
Thanks,
Nightryder

Just for curiousity sake, why?

As a white boy cracker, its always been black = funeral/formal.

Is this a cultural consideration?

The only thing I know is that this information was passed to myself from his moms side of the family...i dont the reasoning behind it other than he wouldnt of wanted that? I didn't ask why...but now I'm looking for different clothes you wear. I'm with you black-funeral

My grandmother didnt want anyone wearing black at her funeral, she requested red since it was her favorite color.

Some people request other than black because they'd rather have someone's life celebrated instead of mourned.

Thats the only reason i can think of.

Well said. Thats the only thing I can think of

That's racist.


It would feel weird going to a funeral in anything other than a black suit, but if that's what he wanted, then so be it.

It was just the "it would not be allowed" part in your other post that got me thinking it was more significant than that.

I don't have a pimp blue zoot suit so I'll do my best to accomodate

His fiancé told me the same thing this morning No black tonight or tomorrow

I dont wanna assume the reasoning behind it I can ask him mom later if theres something significant behind it.

I'm wearing a yellow shirt and will be bringing yellow roses they signify friendship

[2165 Turbo Rail]

I like the yellow rose idea

Ok, so if no black, then what? Shorts and Hawaiian shirts? How casual, non black tie do they want this?

I'd like to know how people are going to dress as well so I don't over/under dress.
