I disagree—I want to know as soon as possible especially if I’m within range to see them before rigor mortis begins. I say this bc people waited to tell me once, and it was pretty upsetting.

I do work that results in me talking about death with people pretty regularly. This is a bad tip. You might refrain from telling small children or people with certain mental needs or illnesses, but people overwhelmingly want this information asap, even when the burden is terrible to bear.

Keep in mind they will then be pissed that you didn't tell them when it happened.

I would just call them immediately as if someone waited an entire day to tell me I'd be pissed off.
