WWJ.commers do.....

[diabolical_Tanya]

okay say you had a friend (same sex)and both of your lives went in different directions and you fell out of touch.

You have her email and she has yours but for whatever reason never made contact.

5 or more years have now gone by, through mutual friends you have heard of the birth of her 2 kids and her sisters marriage and pregnancy as well. Still no desire to make contact.

Recently you see an obituary in the local paper and you are 100% sure it is your former friends stepfather. Neither of the 2 stepdaughters are mentioned, just their mother and half brother.

Would you email her to express condolances or just let it go?

Re: WWJ.commers do.....

mi would call her AND send her a card of condolences.
Use this as an opportunity to establish contact again.

I agree with ilp, even if you don't re-establish a relationship, it is a hard time for anyone to lose a parent, step or not.
The right thing to do is send your condolences.
