>I was appalled at the lack of respect for the sacrament displayed

When I've attended
recent funerals, I've seen
many people dressed

like pro golfers. Folks
toss on random clothes and go.
It's disconcerting,

but real old people
and real young people don't care
about conventions.

My fiance said it was likely a rural/urban difference.

I said it couldn't be, because if that were the case, only us city folks would have been dressed up. We were not alone . . . plenty of rural attendees dressed up.

Just not the young ones, which makes me think it's a generational problem.

And it IS a problem. When I get married in September, I do not wish people to wear to my wedding what they would wear to the pool. You'd think that'd go without saying, but these days . . .
