    Mr. Kiwi's mom would like her late husband's (and dad to Mr. Kiwi) name added as a parent of the groom. We had given her the choice, to be mentioned in the notes or mentioned in the "Parents of the Groom".

     

    My question is: should I put the names as: xxxxx and FMIL Kiwi

    or mention his passing? Like, FMIL Kiwi and the late XXXX Kiwi?

    Or just do it another way? Thanks!

    I really don't know. I read that deceased parents are not to be put that way in the invitation or program. We put our deceased grand parents on the first page of the program on the Acknowledgement page saying a few lines of we're blessed and know they are with us today. Also, in a Catholic ceremony, it will also be mentioned during the ceremony.

    See, that's what I thought! She said, "Well, I didn't make him myself, and I want him mentioned."

     JEEZ.

    I would put it as Mrs jane kiwi and the late Mr John Kiwi-  that is how we are listing our grandparents in the program- both of our grandfathers  are deceased.
