When VG lost his grandpa, I just let him know that I am and will always be there for him. If I were you, and if you knew Stephen for a while and are comfortable with his family and everything, I'd go to the funeral, for the sake of him. That's if he wants you to go.  |

Sometimes the best one can do is just be there for support and to listen. If you want to go to the funeral, I think you should. I believe that funerals are a way to recognized the life and passing of a person but they are also for those who are left behind to give them a sense of closure and a way of saying goodbye. Even though you only met her once, you can still go out of respect and caring...and out of support for your boyfriend.  |

I think you should buy him a rose tell him you are sorry his grandma died and ask him if he wants you to go to the funarel with him. hope everything works out for you.  |

who cares if you didn't really know the woman? Go to be there with your bf to support him. Danny NEVER met my grandmother yet he drove 8 hours to come and be with me at her funeral....I think just being there for when they want to talk is the important thing.....but don't force him to talk until he's ready..  |

My sister just died a month ago and my husband was just there. He hugged me and stayed near, not near like right on top of me, but he stayed home. That way if I needed him he was there. He held me while I cried and was very understanding of my grief and my behavior while I grieved. My sister was also my best friend and so I would get pretty unbearable, but he was there. He told me he loved me very often (if you aren't in love, just let him know you care very much). Just being there will let him know you understand and care. |

I do not think you should ask how to comfort him You should just let him know hoe presious life is. I tyhink the best thing you can do not is to let him know he is loved by many and that his relitive was too,.  |

sometimes it helps to talk about it so that he can just let it all out. Ask him if he would like you to join him at the funeral so that you can be there for him ot just let him know that if he wants anyone there with him, that he can always call u. hope i helped. sorry about his grandma. :'( *hugs*  |
