Is breaching the ‘respect window’ around a death ever acceptable?

The woman was properly ratty about her mother’s funeral. Even though it was a couple of years ago, she could still work herself up into a good rage about the priest

She didn’t know how new he was to the parish, because, as she admitted, her attendance at the local church had been confined, in recent years, to weddings and funerals, so she would’ve had little occasion, up to the obsequies, to observe him in action.

But she took a dim view of his attitude to her mother’s funeral, first of all because he wouldn’t allow her son to deliver a eulogy. No, he told her, the parish “of recent days” had banned eulogies.
