Is this really a "thing" now? Are other people experiencing this too?
My daughter (now 42) and I have been part of a large extended family by second marriage for many years, in fact, since she was 3 years old. Now the elders are passing away. We have just experienced the third, in 8 months, "Memorial Service by Invitation Only" and again we were not invited.
This woman was very kind to my daughter and they had a really neat friendship all these years. When we heard how the memorial service was being handled, Daughter wrote and mailed lovely condolence notes to both of her daughters (no mention of the service).
She called me tonight and said both notes were returned to her! Both had been opened, and "Return to Sender" was written on the envelopes, and it looked like the same person had written on both of them, even though they live in different towns.
Daughter is hurt and confused. I am flabbergasted.
