So hard to overcome

Two days ago Drew Simmons of Tawas was snowmobiling, when a truck pulled out in front of him. Since he was maxed out on his sled he had no chance to stop or turn. He hit the truck and died instantly. But the reason I posted this is because our town is very small and the death of Drew, who was 50 days away from graduation, is very hard for everyone to deal with. So I'm asking for everyone to just please pray for everyone here, especially his family. Thank you everyone it is greatly appreciated.
 
Another thing I wanted to ask of people, is if anyone could give me suggestions on what I should say to help comfort the one closest to him?
 
My condolences. 🙁

Just be there for those closest to him, listen if they need an ear, hold them if they need a shoulder to cry on.
 
My condolences to you.

As far as what words to say, it won't matter really what you say...Just tell them you are sorry for their loss. The fact that you are also experiencing the families' loss will be whats important. Just

Maybe because some people of the human race understand what friendship and love mean. When someone leaves this earth, and even if they do not know that person, maybe they can understand how those people that did know the person felt. Its called sympathy. Something that may be hard to understand by some people because the only interaction they get with the human race is through a CRT.

 
Thanks guys, because right now I need any help I can get...the visiting service is in a few hours and what you said helped me.
