How do you deal with an unexpected death?

Thanks Duderino. We are doing ok in general. My main concern is my little bro, who was not quite 14 when mum died last year. But even he seems to be getting back on track with school and friends and stuff.

@Dolla.
If you know his family I'd try to give them a hand in some way. Maybe even just take dinner around on a night or two? Or just drop by every few weeks, and then later on every couple of months. Believe me, they'll notice the kindness, and you will feel better for checking up on your friends family.
