Arrangements : My six- and eight-year old children are very close to their grandfather who's dying and in Hospice care. I want to bring them to the Chapel, but not the cemetery. Is this the right decision? by Hebrew Memorial Chapel. A: I'm often asked this question. Remember, what children see is often less frightening than what they imagine. I find it best to discuss the entire process from death to burial prior to the funeral. Knowing what to expect usually allows them to participate throughout. DONALD H.
