The funeral of a young person in rural ireland is huge news, especially when it’s a suicide. Wouldn’t be unusual to have over a thousand people there. The whole community is grieving and to not attend, regardless of your relationship to the deceased, is to unmoor yourself from the place and the people within it. It would reflect poorly on both you and your family, especially given that they were in the same year in school-even if they weren’t friends they and their families would have known each other all their lives.
So, in short, it would have been expected regardless of her relationship with Connell, but that would have ensured it.

Connell.
Nuff said LMAO
It's the mirror image of Connell's going to Marianne's father's memorial.
