I’ve created a page of “Helpful Grief Resources” with examples of what to say when someone dies (and what not to say).  I’ll add new sources as I encounter them, so check back from time to time.

• Have you found useful sites, books, articles–even songs–that helped you interact with the bereaved?

• If you’ve suffered a significant loss in your life, what comments or gestures from friends were most (or least) helpful to you?

Please share your experiences in the comments below or you can contact me via

Together we can ease the anxieties of those who wish to help their grieving friends — and thereby help the mourners, too.
