Here's the situation:
My mother's boyfriend's mom passed away last night. We're having some sort of memorial service rather than a funeral. I plan on going to the memorial service, however my mother felt the need to tell me that his family was raised Catholic. I'm not sure how much any member of his family has studied into Catholicism. I do know that my mom's boyfriend isn't into any of it at all. If I had to 'label' (for lack of a better word) him, I'd say he's an atheist.
The reason I need advice is because I'm not Catholic; I have no idea what kind of procedures (again, for lack of a better word) that his family may do, and I do not wish to offend them. The only reason I'm even asking for advice is because my mom mentioned it to me.
So, my question is this:
Is there anything I should(n't) do?
Like I said before, I'm only asking this because my mom mentioned it to me.
