I'm so sorry for your loss. How devastating.
Going over and over again about the loss is his way of trying to process it all. My mother did the same when my father passed suddenly.
Love and support him. Maybe help with a meals. Ask if he needs help moving.

I am so sorry. I would say be there for him, help him with anything practical like immediate arrangements, and just listen. I know we all want to say the 'right thing', but being there for him and listening will mean a lot.

I'm so very sorry for your loss. May your daughter-in-law's memory be for a blessing to all who knew her. This will take time and he'll need his friends and most of all his parents more than ever. If you notice over time that he's stuck in his grief then a support group for widowers or private therapy can be very helpful. For now, he is suffering and that means that his mama is also suffering. (((((HUGS))))). My thoughts and healing prayers are w/you and your son.

Thanks everyone. He is awake at night and sleeping a lot during the day. He does a lot of pacing back and forth.
But he has a lot to get done today. We are staying at his house for now.
Also I feel so bad for her parents.

I am so very sorry. I imagine that the pain for both families must be almost too much. Being there for him in person is probably the best you can do right now.

It's a delicate balancing act to help someone make all the decisions that must be made in the early days. Be there for him and guide him gently, but recognize that they are all his decisions to make. Other than that, listen a lot and hug a lot.
My condolences to you all on such a tragic loss.

Oh my gosh. I am SO very sorry! How tragic! Please give your son tons of support and love. When you come up for air, maybe look for someone professional for him to speak to. I can't imagine processing this level of tragedy at this age. xo
