My great aunt's husband. I had a bad feeling about him the moment I met him when I was a kid. Turns out he was a paedophile that got two of his granddaughters pregnant and was sent to prison. He died a few years ago and the family held a wake for him and I had to explain why I wanted nothing to do with him. WTF.
A wake was still held for him?! Ya no shit you didn't want to go.
What is a wake?
More or less a celebration of someones' life that is less formal than a typical funeral.
