If it makes YOU feel better just tell her, without bringing anything else into it, that "Hey, You know Im right here if you need anything right?"
That will make you feel better without actually putting her on the spot. Lets her know that if she wants to talk, youll listen

hug her when u see her and sit and talk about her dad. tell her that hes in heaven and hes watching you and all he wants you to do is be happy. and if she starts crying then its normal....dont freak out, becuz u would cry too. remind her of good memories Smile

Just be extra nice! Don't make it too obvious though. You don't want to put her on the spot! Make her feel like that her friends are always there for her. Be the loyal friend!

I would act like normal, YET still be there for her if she wants to talk. When I found out my uncle died about 10 days before I was supposed to see him (Lung Cancer...went waay before we thought he would), I didn't tell many people. Yea, I acted like a jerk, but still. When I did tell people and they were trying to get me to "pour my feelings", it annoyed me and made me more mad. Just don't joke around about those things, and try not to mention fathers/dads. I had health that day on tobacco and my friends were cracking jokes about it and lung cancer and I almost cried/punced someone. Hope I helped!

let her talk about it if she wants to talk. she will probably not want to talk about it for a while and when she does just listen and offer support. u dont have to say anything listening is important here. let her bring it up. thats not acting as if it didnt happen. good luck and my prayers are with her
