Oh goodness, what can you say to someone who has just lost a son, brother, dear friend to console them?

What a horrible shock for all of you and I am so deeply sorry.

My prayers will certainly include your whole family that somehow you may find comfort that your dear son and brother has reached his rich reward in heaven. I know, you were not prepared to let him go at such a young age...........but I feel certain he is now looking down on you and attempting to dry your tears.
