you dont have to think of anything great to say i mean just be there for her you dont even have to give her advice just support her and comfort her she has lost someone close to her she needs all the support she can get at this moment just tel her your there to listen if she ever needs to talk and your there if she ever needs a shoulder to cry on

Tell her that you know its hard to cope with, but everyone will die one day or another, and tell her that if she ever needs anything, ull always be there for here. good luck :)

just tell her that if she needs something or someone to talk to then you'll be there, make sure that she's got your screen name and phone number (home or cell) just someone who'll be there for her

Try something like, "Hi, I heard about your mom and just wanted to say sorry. If there's anything me or my family can do to help you out, let me know." Be friendly.

Don't say something like, "GOD THATS SUCKS ABOUT YOUR MOM. I couldn't live without my mom."
That'd be mean... be nice.

Hope I helped!

The same thing happened to me at the beginning of the year. It depends on how good friends you are to what you do. You can either go and talk to her or you can write her a card. Just say how really sorry you are to hear what's happened. You have no idea what she must be going through but you are there whenever she needs to take her mind off things or talk. Say you are free whenever to go to the movies or anything if she needs to get away from it all. Hope this helps a little

Losing a family member is really hard, i just lost my grandpa yesterday. Just go up to her and be like, im sorry about your mom and give her a hug. Anything will help, trust me. It helps me when someone just smiles at me, it makes me feel like i will get through this and everythings going to be okay.

fragileivory answered Friday May 13 2005, 11:05 pm:
The most appropriate thing is a sincere "I'm sorry".

Also, here's a little advice I have. People always say "If you need to talk, let me know" or something like that when a family/friend dies.

I think it's a better gesture to tell the person you're there for them, and ask if they'd like to do something to get their mind off it. Make plans with the person. It's better than offering than to be there and not following through, and it's more comforting to the mourner.

Go up to her, look her in the eyes, and say "(her name), Im so sorry about your mom, I know it must be so hard on you and your family. If you ever need to talk about it, you know Im here for you." xO ali
