Something my great grandfather had once told me when a family member passed away.

"Even if it doesn't seam like it I know how you feel. Death is a normal part of life and the cruelest pain any one person can ever feel. But just because you can not see them does not mean they are not there. Watching you and crying with you by your side. But they do not cry for their own passing. The cry for the anguish you feel and the temporary separation. They no longer feel the pain of life. They walk on soft grasses and bath in cool rivers. And if you listen close you can hear their voices on the wind. Whispering to you. They long for you to hear that they are happy. They tell you about the wonderful things that are there and ask why you are sad about this. Cry for now but do not keep sorrow in your heart. This is one moment and it will pass. Yes they are waiting for us but we must take our time getting there. When we do we will have eternity to talk and remember. The more memories we have the more we will have to talk about. And the greater the reunion it will be"

Please feel free to share this with your friend. Even if it is not the religion he practices the wisdom in it is universal. It says to cry now but do not stop living. Don't forget the joys in your life and understand that they are still here even if you can not see them. If you are a person who does not believe in life after death then think of it this way. The words, actions, and teachings of the person are always carried on in those that are left. A Corney joke, a love for music, or even seeing the magic in the night sky. I hope this helps. It has always comforted me.

Prayers sent to him and his family.
Losing a father is very hard, and its a very sad time..
God will help him mend,
to him we shall depend...
