Today: How to help those in mourning
What do you say to someone who is mourning the sudden death of a loved one or close friend?
Dennis D. Ashton, of LDS Family Services' Farmington office, says people need to realize that someone who has suffered a loss needs to feel grief and needs to mourn. Well-meaning people may feel the need to give the "why" of a loss instead of asking what they can do to help the person through the loss.
