I think it's just important to let them know that you're there for them. It's so sad to lose a family member, especially one like a father. Death is never easy, but it's so much more horrible when it's someone that close to you. It’s hard to know how someone is going to need you when they are grieving.

I remember back in college my roommate's mother called to tell her that her aunt (one that had been super close with her) had died suddenly. She collapsed in my arms completely wrought with grief and all I could do was hug her. You feel so helpless when all you want to do is help them conquer the situation...I think though that just being there for them is doing more than we believe at the time. My thoughts are with your friend and her family, and you too. *hugs* Wow…I agree, something like this is definitely hard to wrap your mind around, especially if it happens to a close friend.

Losing someone who is very important like your parents is really sad and it's so hard to accept. Yes, you're right the best thing that you can do is to comfort her and to show her that you truly love her. I think that's more than enough! That’s a sad news for your bestfriend.

It must not have been an easy thing to do to take one's father off the list and your friend is very brave for doing so. I think it's just a good time now to remind her how brave and how strong she can be. You’re right, the best thing you can do is just to be there for comfort.
