Will Obama's grandmother have a funeral?

[Changenow]

It may not have been her wish, but it is time to explain.

1. What?

Wouldn't they have already had it? She died nearly a week ago.

2. It's not time to "explain." There will be a memorial service this month.

And Obama and his entire family will be there.

This is a a private matter. Please treat it as such.

3. It's a private family matter. Why the need for an explanation? nt

5. Explain what?

I don't understand.

6. NOBODY in that family owes you or anybody else any sort of "explanation"

about when or where or if a funeral will be held. That is strictly a private matter between Barack Obama and his sister.

MYOB.

7. "it is time to explain"

Says who?

My best friend's grandmother died and wished to be cremated, and they had a memorial service for her (one the whole family could attend) some weeks later.

It's Obama's private family matter.

8. It will be private...

I hope they don't announce it because the nutzo Phelps clan is planning on protesting.
