One of my best friends has died

He was not in good health. It has been expected. He went well. It is still not real.

And there was still so much to talk about and yet we are comfortable in the silence.

I will miss you.

I know there's really nothing I can say that will make it better, so I'm just going to stand here and be ready to hold you if you need it....

The saddest thing is that he and his wife would be the ones we would share our pain with - and I don't have the perfect thing to say to HER when I ought to be able to come up with something.

They have been our best friends since forever. It isn't often that it works that way (individual friends and couple friends).

Thank you for being there.

I know, in my atoms, how you're feeling. The hardest bit is that there ARE no words.

My sympathies. I know how you feel. One of my closest friends is still (7 months) mourning the suicide death of his 20 year old daughter. I never have words for him but I know by being there i am offering him comfort. There are no words Just be there.
