How can i reduce the suffering of someone with a death?

Best way to help: Be open to his questions, let him know you are supportive. His concerns may be different than his. Talk in general ways about how you are coping with this but do not overwhelm him. Direct him to a support group for people who lost their parents, consider if the person should find a counselor. Find a good family therapist who can give advice on coping with death.
