Q: We chose not to bring my five-year old son to my father's funeral. He misses his grandfather and constantly asks about him. Should we take him to the unveiling this spring? A: Before bringing him to the unveiling, take him to the chapel and I can walk him through it, explaining what happens from the time of death to the funeral. The unveiling itself will have little meaning. A beter understanding of the process is far more important than attending an event he can't possibly comprehend.

Nell Carter, 54 Nell Carter, 54, the African- American Jew best known for the Broadway musical Ain't Misbehavin' and the 1980s sitcom Gimme A Break! died Jan. 23, 2003. The stout, sassy singer-actress — who won a 1978 Tony Award for Misbehavin'— spent the last day of her life rehearsing a Long Beach revival of the musical Raisin, which she hoped would return her to Broadway. She collapsed at her Beverly Hills, Calif. home early the next morning and was found by her 13-year-old son, Joshua, who had celebrated his bar mitzvah in December. Ms. Carter converted to Judaism while married to her first husband, a Conservative Jew and the son of Holocaust survivors. — Naomi Pfifferman Jewish. Journal of Greater Los Angeles
