Our grandpops are probably the best person we meet in our life. They spoil us with their love and always stand by us no matter what. In times of need, we know we have someone to fall back on. They teach us everything. From helping us with the science projects to teaching us how to ride a bike. They listen to our silly stories and never get tired of them. Even if they are not able to do anything, just having them around means the world to some of us. Grandfathers are the glue that holds the family close together.

But as all things come to an end, good or bad, our time with our grandfathers is also limited. No matter what we do, it is a fact and cannot be changed. Everyone has to leave this life when their time comes, but some losses in life are too much for us to bear. Even in their death, they bring the family close once again. If you are dealing with someone who just lost their best friend,  you can use the following condolence messages to show them your support. Help them get through this tough time by easing their journey with your wise words. 

This journey of grief is going to be long, and it is going to be really hard. Everyone processes death with their own understanding but what we can do for each other is to show that we care. To convey that we have them in our prayers. Even if this looks like the least that you can do, sometimes all someone wants is to know that they are not alone.

Ways To Express Your Sympathies

There are so many ways through which you can show your sympathies. You can send them some comfort food or a gift. It is the best way to show your support. You can gift them

• A Throw Blanket 
• Gift Basket 
• Memorial Plants 
• A Wind Chime 

Even if you don’t feel like gifting something, although it is better to meet in person, you can always just send a little text to catch up on them and ask them how they are doing. Remember, not everyone processes grief in the same way. They might not be wanting to talk about their feelings. Respect their decision and do not probe them to open up to you. They will, but with time.
