Unless she has specifically stated that no flowers should be sent (for example, “In lieu of flowers, please send a donation to this charity), we would advise sending an arrangement and a note. But first, if you feel comfortable doing so, giving her a call or a brief visit also would be appropriate.

Thank you for joining the conversation at Funeralwise.

Do I send flower to the new wife? (I am close to my mother in law and his sisters) Do I call her or wait at the burial to give my sympathic ? I met her once and my spouse is not too much on ̩tiquette and his grieving in his own way. Thanks
