Well, I guess the subject's self-explainitory, huh? Basically, my best friend's grandpa died the other day, and I really haven't seen her all that much since, because she wasn't at school due to wake. The funeral's tomorrow, and I'm invited, but I just don't know what to say to her. ermm.gif I've never had anybody close to me die before, so I really don't know how she feels, because I've never been placed in that situation before. Some of answers are obvious, but I don't know, death is just a hard thing to deal with, and I'm just trying to help in any way that I can. Any suggestions?

It depends how close your friend was to her grandfather. The standard thing to say is "I'm sorry for your loss" or something along those lines, and if she wants to talk about it then go ahead. There's not much else you can say with a matter like this is she doesnt feel comfortable with the subject. Anyways, I'm sorry to hear about your friends' loss, I hope she's dealing with it ok.
