That's a nice thought. As someone who's had more deaths in the family than I would care to remember, and had it happen while on vacation...in most cases, there's absolutely nothing that you can do right after it happens*. You just sit around grieving. The people who are closest plan the arrangements and take care of everything. So you're either grieving at home...or grieving on vacation.IF someone died that is close to me, I would not care in the least bit about my vacation, refunds or tickets, I would fly home and take care of what needed to be done, that is what a responsible person does. No way I could have fun at WDW, knowing about the death.
My best friends' Father died last week, I had only met him once in the 35 years of friendship, my friend said I dont have to go to the funeral, but I and my wife drove 2.5hrs each way to go. Not to blow my own horn or virtue signal, but that should be the norm, family and friends above all else.
100%. I can't imagine missing a family member's funeral so I can continue having fun ay WDW.IF someone died that is close to me, I would not care in the least bit about my vacation, refunds or tickets, I would fly home and take care of what needed to be done, that is what a responsible person does.

THis , I’d be the same. I’d never be enjoying the vacation while a family member goes to funeral and back to vacation to join us.IF someone died that is close to me, I would not care in the least bit about my vacation, refunds or tickets, I would fly home and take care of what needed to be done, that is what a responsible person does.

Why? Because forums members have different feedback? The OP from they say they sound like was planning to go back home mid vacation ( which I support ) if it was a family member of mine.…this thread is heading to shutdown ville
