I'm in line for interview but hubby has a death in the family and we're thinking about going to Jamaica. Can I travel while in the process of doing the citizenship? (I'm being mindful of the dates and everything)

Citizenship is not like all the other steps in this process. It is a choice. If you miss an interview or biometrics appointment you forfeit the application fee and the time you have waited, but there are no real consquences like loosing a GC or not being able to leave and return to the US. You still have your GC and as long as you maintain your LPR status there is no problem in returning to the US.

Sorry to hear about your loss.
