Displaying the first steps of your grief, IMO, is an, "I'm sorry for your loss" in advance. For some of us, there is no greater comfort than empathy.

Unfortunately, this probably makes no sense at all, but that's because I'm very, very speshul and I understand that I life on Planet Fawn, but I want to say thank you for comforting all of your friends who have and those who will lose a loved one.
