Dear Ann Landers,
y aunt gave our child a $25 check for confirmation. The check bounced. Stamped across the face of it was "Insufficient Funds." This aunt is well-to-do, and we can't understand why the check didn't clear. My husband says we should say nothing and let the matter drop. I don't agree. Would it be in bad taste to send the check back to my aunt?- Dilemma

Dear Dilemma,
Put the check through a second time, with a note asking if the bank was in error. Banks are not infallible. If the check bounces a second time, forget it.

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, whatever they needed I provided. What really hurt my son and I the most was the obituary - we were not mentioned at all. Our friends (mine and hers) were appalled. I was embarrassed and upset for not just me, but for my son-who loved her also. I never been so upset. Her x-husband put his wife and kids and their grandchildren in the obituary, who my girlfriend barely knew. They live an hour away from us. I know its silly to be mad over a little section of the newspaper, but it still hurts. Will time let this devastating loss of her and this article ever go away? I am so angry at this whole situation, its not like we can go and rewrite an obituary notice.

Tell us what you think?
