you should just be there for her. if she has something to say, listen. tell her that everything will be alright. and just be her shoulder to cry on!

hey! my cousin while on vacation in texas with me over spring break had a friend die. he was really close with him and was pretty hurt. that night we weren't talking about it cause we didn't want to make him feel bad but it turns out it made him feel better to talk about it. so we were in the hottub til 1:30 in the morning talking to him about all the times he had. so just try to console your friend. ask him/her if he needs anything or wants to talk about it. tell your friend i'm sorr. hope it helps!

sincerely,
n*cheer

well, you should comfort her...tell her your sorry it had 2 happen to him. And let her jus spill her feelings out to u, and cry til she cant cry anymore. You jus have to be there for her.
Goodluck!

You should not say anything ,just be there for them when they need you.most people are always saying oh i am sorry,or something like ,are you ok.They don't want to hear that kind of stuff.so just be the shoulder they can cry on,when they are ready to talk.just be a good listener.

As said, there is really nothing much you can do nor say.

Just let her/him know that your there by him/her side. Through everything. Hug them, cry together. Nothing will bring him back.

The best thing is to just extend your condolences / sympathy, and offer to be there for them. People deal with grief in different ways, and I'm sure your friend is still in the shock stage. All you cna do is to be a friend for them, which can be very important.

To tell you the truth there really isn't much you can tell your friend. The best thing to do is just lend her yourself, and make it clear you are there for them. Because right now is a fragile time and you don't want to bother them so, hang around with them, lend them an ear and a shoulder when they need it.

The easiest thing to do would be to hug your friend and let him/her know that you're their for him/her if they want to talk. There isn't much you can say to make anything any easier, so just be there to listen to your friend.
