It was a very sudden death and all of us are extremely upset. Any help would be appreciated.

YES!!!!! when my baby pased away i really appreciated all of the sympathy cards, it made me feel that they did care and was so thoughtful of them to take time out of their day to go and buy a card for us. it may be a little thing from you, but it will be a big thing for your friend and her family!!!

That or more even. Definitely go to the wake or a similar procession before the funeral, but probably not necessarily the funeral, only if you are really close friends.
Also tell her other friends about this to make sure they're all aware of the situation. Maybe all of you can also arrange something for her.

I think it is defiantly a good idea to give sympathy card or send flowers. This will let them know you are thinking about them and that you care also sending money isn't a bad idea either, funeral's can be very expensive.

Cards from people even strangers are the greatest feeling cause it shows your concern for them. so yes its the right thing to do. your friend is going through a very hard time and to know your there as a friend is a very is very helpful

Yes it is OK to give them a card. Also try to be there as much as you can. Just keep in mind that they are going to go thru a lot of emotional changes. Hang in there because they need you.

I definitely would get a sympathy card but dint get an extremely sappy one. get a simple one that simply says something like sorry for your loss or something like that...As for what to write just say that you will be there for her if she needs anything at all and even if she has your # write it on the card anyway to show how serious you are.....As for you,I truly am sorry for your loss and if you need someone to vent to, you can im me or email me.....

If the crowd has cleared and she can talk to you I say yes but give her some space because I know that to many people asking the same Q's about it and what not can make it hurt worse give her time and let her know you'll be there if and when she is ready to talk about it

Yes, give her a card. It will help her to knowing you understand what she is going through and it will enforce how good of a friend you are to her. She'll need support and love. Be there for her.

I'm sure a sympathy card would be greatly appreciated, but more than that, just be there for her and don't put her on a time line for recovery. It may be months before she gets back to being herself. She needs you to be okay with that.

A sympathy card and a shoulder to cry on would be great.
