"What can I say?" and "What can I do?"

- Special circumstances -- sudden death, suicide, the death of a parent or child
- How to compose a letter of condolence -- including a variety of sample letters
- How to be of service -- from ideas for thoughtful gifts, to assisting with business affairs and funeral arrangements, to suggested ways of helping in the aftermath
