passes away suddenly. The funeral is scheduled for the same time you have plans for a first date that you are extremely excited about. What do you do?

I think you can do both, most funerals are during the day.

Ditto for if they are distant then that means I don't really know them most likely. But now if it was a cousin I grew up with that passed away I would go to the funeral.

I know all of my many third cousins. All of my family will be at the funeral too. Family first. If my date is not capable of understanding that, he is not the one for me.
