"He pointed out that he didn't attend events on Sundays because of a family matter. His sister had died, and everyone gathered on Sunday to commemorate/remember the event. His sister died more than two years ago.
I argued that a family meeting such as that could be moved earlier or later, especially since two years had passed for a healing to take place."
Everyone "heals" and honors their loved ones differently. I have a dear friend, who still, five years after his wife passed away, takes a yellow rose to her grave and then has breakfast at their favorite restaurant every Sunday. Nothing interferes with this routine.
We need to accept the possibility that not everyone reacts to loss as we do. Unless you have evidence that Hector was really at the beach throwing back brews on Sunday, I don't believe you should have challenged his practice.
