I lost a well-known relative last year. Almost immediately, people started texting and calling, to offer support and find out what happened. Folks tend to forget that in the immediate aftermath, you're still processing and not in the emotional space to entertain guests and answer questions. If you really want to offer support, check in after the funeral. Those quiet moments alone are normally the hardest times, once you start really processing and everyone else has moved on and forgotten about you. My heart goes out to him.

Ok so, sorry for ur loss, but you wouldn't actually know what was going on with Social Media unless you yourself was on it constantly. When my brother died unexpectedly at the end of last year I was so devasted I didn't want to talk on the phone, go anywhere, or have any company. And I sure didn't want, nor did I go on Social Media. Social Media wasn't a factor at the time. The unbearable pain in my heart was the factor! So Sir, stay away from Social Media for a while and I guarantee you it will not come looking for you against ur Will. May ur Son rest in peace. I'm so sorry for ur loss.
