I saw "Bambi" as a four year old, in 1948. It was the first time I'd been to a movie theater. It was at the Mayfair in Ventura, CA. "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all." That is one bit of advice that my sister followed better than I.

When our mother dies, we do not plan to have a memorial service. As Flower said, "If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all."

Sorry to hear that your situation suggests that option, but better silent dignity than crocodile tears or something unpleasant.
