That's bad.

My dad popped his clogs right in front of me, and it still haunts me (I was 26 at the time). A nine year old shouldn't have to endure that kind of tragic reality.

Nine? Bloody hell, I know this must be a traumatic time, but as Paul says, make sure she gets some care and support.

I'm very sorry to hear about your loss I hope his daughter will be okay as well. Some days I still struggle to come to terms with what I saw when my Dad died and I was 28 at the time.

That's awful, such a shock at any age, but that is way to young.

My thoughts ate with his family and friends.

Deepest sympathy to all the family involved.

Too young, much too young.

So sorry to hear that. I can fully sympathise with you, I lost my best mate at 36. Died of a brain hemorrhage. I was out with him the night before and it was the first news I got the following morning. I remember getting so angry and thinking "why didn`t he tell me about this yesterday". Makes no sense I know.

Sorry to hear about this, puts all lifes little issues to one side

I'd just suggest to remember the good times, being best friends I bet you would have cracking stories to tell one day

Mate,
Sad to hear.A work colleague of mine died recently whilst at dinner with his family on holiday-no warning-collapsed and died...
The girl may need quite specific help,so can I point you in the direction of winstons wish that specialise in helping the children of parents/loved ones who have died-they get easily forgotten.
I've got some booklets at work that may be of help that I can send out to to you-just pm me and I'll sort for you...

Thats terrible, very sad news for you

A friend and neighbour of mine died there on Saturday of suspect meningitis....he went to bed with a sore head on Friday nite and never woke up again....he was only 18 and had just started university last week ....it definately makes you think about what you actually do have in life and appreciate it a little bit more!!

Be strong for the family!!
