Loss, and it isn't even mine.

How does one reconcile/come to grips with/ understand the meaning of death? How does it affect you? How does it affect your family? How does one who is a bystander support those that are reeling from loss? As each person grieves individually, is there any good thing to say to a person that is in the least bit helpful/supportive....
Just questioning.

  1. I think just being there. Not avoiding people that have suffered a loss assuming that they ave got lots of support around them. Just drop off a little something and see if they would like to talk. I loved talking about my mom after she was gone...especially after the funeral when everyone disappears.
