Best Answer

Yes if the purpose is to mourn the loss of a loved one or friend, or to comfort and support the mourners because of a connection to the deceased or to the mourners. It is very commonplace -- and it is not limited to Christians -- people of all faiths who have those purposes are welcome. Is there a family that might take exception? Of course, but that would be true for any faith based on personal choice. For instance, sometimes a family will have a family or private funeral only; then nobody other than the specific invitees are welcome.

There is no issue with Jews attending Catholic funerals from the perspective of the Catholic Church. However, most Jews will not enter a church due to Jewish law prohibiting participating in religious services of another religion.
