A friend of ours took his life on Saturday. He leaves two boys ages 21 and 17, and a daughter age 15. I called last night to talk with their mom and the 21 year old answered and as I told him how sorry we were for his loss and what can we do to help he said, "please pray for my family"!
Our family has been through many deaths and tragedies, and I know what to say and what to do for a family in their time of need. This one has me truly numb on the appropriate words and actions. Besides the usual gifts of sympathy, if anyone has any thoughts on right/wrong words I would appreciate your input.
Sincerely,
Phyllis
