So sorry for your loss. I'm here if you want to talk, cry, vent, remember.

Gift certificates to a take-out in their area. There are so many things to take care of in those first few days.
And the shock, especially if unexpected may send a person into near debilitating depression.
Maybe offering to pay for house cleaning for awhile.

Visit even though they may be horrible company.

Gone to a better place where there is no pain

sorry for your loss

It depends greatly on how close you are to the person you are expressing your sympathy, and how conest you feel you can be with thyem. If I am not really close, I simply say, (I am sorry for your loss.)

I also tell the person they and their family are in my thoughts, and that it is my hope that their forms will warm their hearts in the midst of their grief. It is my belief that deep grief can be embraced as evidence of great love.

I usually say: Sending positive healing energy. I'll be thinking about you and your family. Hugs!

I say my thoughts are with you at this difficult time. If it is a close friend, I would offer my help in any capacity they might need.
