So sorry for this awful shock. We lost my best friends daughter (my niece to all intents & purposes) to suicide at age 15. It is a shock and a horror that will become less sharp over time but still hurts today as it did then. Let your son lead in what he wants to talk about, if he wants to talk about it. Don’t be afraid to say their name and remember the good times. Tell your son that he’s not responsible, that he didn’t miss anything, some sign or indication. His friend may have seemed perfectly usual and even happy beforehand. My niece was singing, joking round and goofing about with her friends and even went to her part time job in the hours before she took her own life. No indication at all. Nothing. Never have a hint of mental distress. Your son should remember them for their friendship, for the time they shared and not just the manner of their passing. God bless you
