May one visit a father's grave after attending a funeral of a non relative

Answer

Shalom!

Thank you for your question!

It is permissible to visit multiple graves on any cemetery visit. It is worth noting, however, that it is customary not to visit the same grave twice in the same day. (Mishna Berura 581:27)
