Death is a painful yet unavoidable part of humanity. When you hear that someone’s father has died, before showing them sympathy, figure out if their father was important to them or not. Cruel as it seems, not everyone has a positive relationship with their father, so they may not know how to react to their father passing away. But, if someone does have a positive relationship with their father, show them sympathy, care, and let them know you are there if hey need a shoulder to cry on.
