My best friend's wife passed away today.
I really suck at being there during such emotional times. Please help. I want him to feel I'm there for him.

Mostly just be there. Look out for him - make sure he's eating, sleeping, breathing. Listen if he wants to talk but don't force it.
Your caring presence is what matters. It will matter more in a couple of days when the funeral is over and everybody else has gone back to their lives.

@Mamapolo2016 Yes, that's so true. It's in the weeks or months after people still need support. 👏♥️

@Mamapolo2016 the funeral is already finished. He called me after she passed away. I couldn't answer his call because I'm in my own personal mess and I'm not receiving anyone's calls. He called again evening and I told him I'll be with him the next early morning.
