My brother died today... my other brother is taking care of all the arrangements..?

I want to do something for my older brother who has had to make the decision to take our other brother off of life support. He is taking care of all of the funeral arrangements and I want him to know how much I love and appreciate him for all that he is doing.


Any idea's?..... (and not flowers, I'm sure we will all get plenty of those)

My brother died today... my other brother is taking care of all the arrangements..?
just tell him how much you appreciate him. i wouldn't buy him anything because it will always remind him of your brothers death.
Reply:Just spend time to make sure he knows of your support and appreciation. I don't believe there is anything tangible that could mean anything more.





Sincere condolences.
Reply:you go hug him and tell him you are willing to take some of the burdens off his shoulders ,he might fill obligated to do every thing but you just step in and help i am so so sorry for your and your brothers loss
Reply:First, give him a hug. Then give him some money for the funeral and tewll him how much you love him and maybe ask him to help. Tell him he is doing a great job. And i am really sorry that your brother died.
Reply:im sorry for what you are going through......its kind of cheesy but what about a scrap book with pictures and funny comments of you all........as a gift to remind him of the old times. write a poem especially for him and include your thanks, make him dinner and give him a big hug.x
Reply:Im very sorry for your loss. But i dont think there is anything materialistic that will matter to him right now. The best thing you can do for him is just telling him how much he means to you and how much you appreciate what hes doing....and of course how much you love him. Words sometimes makes the world of difference especially in a case like this.
Reply:Aww sweets, I'm so sorry to here that about you bro! You could just sit him down and tell him how much you love and appreciate him. I've gone through the same situation and its hard i know! But, you could just be there for him and the family. He would really appreciate that.................
Reply:Tell him how much you appreciate what he is doing. Then show hm. Make an effort for the rest of your lives to become closer and stay that way. Family comes first and is forever.
Reply:The very best thing you can do is .....tell him. Really tell him how much you care not only about what he has done, but how much he really means to you also. Nothing better than truefulness.
Reply:I'm sorry about your brother. I went through it myself 2 yrs ago. The only thing I can suggest is help him make the arrangements. Be there for him to talk, listen or just have a shoulder to cry on. Ask him outright...not IF you can help...but WHAT you can do to help. There is a possibility that he doesn't want help from anyone. It could be his way of grieving. Just be near if he does need a shoulder.





My brother died suddenly at 29. He and my other brother worked together, lived together, and played together. I would go over to their house to do little things like cut grass or cook him a few meals to stick in the freezer. He needed to be the one to go through Drew's things as his way of grieving. And in a way it helped me, too. Making me closer to my brother still living, and closer to my other brothers spirit.
Reply:Take him out to dinner and let him know how wonderful he has been. Write and say something at the service and let everyone know how he has had to take care of everything and thank him in front of everyone. If your talking material give him a gift certificate or something like that. A relaxing time to be alone is always good.
Reply:Vacation? Sky diving? Ski trip?
Reply:I'm sorry to hear about your loss. Older brothers have a need to take care of their little sisters...The best thing you can do for him is tell him you love him. Tell him you're thankful to have him as a brother. Sometimes material things aren't what mean most, it's the words you never forget.
Reply:Sorry for your loss.


Just be there and hug him , tell him that everything he has to do is right.


Let him know that you also there for him at these times is better if some one care with love than material items.
Reply:when my mother died in my arms all anyone could do that I felt really helped was to tell me i did the right thing and that they cared for me deeply and loved me for taking care of her in her last days.Some of my family still blames me for they weren't there but that was there choice. we all make a choice and you're brothers was the hardest. So give him a hug and tell him thank you for caring so much for you're brother and that you appreciate everything make sure you tell him thank you everyday a nd reassure the love you have for him
Reply:First of all I'm really SORRY about your lost. But I think that you should just come out and tell him how much you really appreciate him for all he has done for u and your family.
Reply:Just tell him you appreciate his doing this. Also, I want to offer my deepest sympathies and condolences for your loss.
Reply:I am very sorry for your loss. Just let your older brother know you love and appreciate him.
Reply:write him a letter to tell him how important he is to your life, there is nothing better to give someone then your feelings and encouragment, he will always remember that.
Reply:Tell him.
Reply:Sorry to hear about that. My condolences go out to you and your family. Just being there for your brother and helping out with any arrangments is good enough.
Reply:I am so sorry for your loss. I would keep telling him how much you appreciate all that he is doing. Tell him that you love him as well. Be there for each other through this rough time. If you want to get him a gift...maybe a pocket watch with your other brother's picture in it or one of all of you.
Reply:Im sorry hun.


A letter or maybe a picture of you and him together and strong should help.


what happened to the poor boy?
Reply:Just tell him how much you appreciate everything he's doing. And ask if there's anything you can do to help - tell him that you'd like to help if it would benefit him as well. I'm sorry for your loss.
Reply:write him a letter and tell him how much you admire him and appreciate him
Reply:i am so sorry to hear that...





i don't think a gift is what your brother would want. sometimes words coming directly from you are much nicer and something he will remeber. let him know how much you appreciate him and you know how hard of a decision he did .. just let him know how you feel.
Reply:I am so sorry to hear about this...When I had a bad wreck one time my brother wrote me a letter of what was on his hert and after 10 years I still have the letter and will forever cherish it.
Reply:Sit down over a hot cup of coffee and discuss your brother who has passed. At this time you can also let your brother know how important a role he plays in your life and inform him of how grateful you are that he has been responsible for looking after things. Sorry to hear about your loss. Sounds like a cheap remedy but sitting at kitchen table with a hot coffee will be a relaxed place and easy spot to communicate.
Reply:I understand your sentiment, however it wouldn't be right to give him a gift of any kind. It will make him feel very uncomfortable. HOWEVER, writing him a card or letter letting him know how much you love and appreciate him and all that he is doing (keep it general). He will most certainly appreciate that from you.


My deepest and sincerest condolences to you and your family. My youngest brother of 4 of them passed away two years ago.
Reply:Just tell him.





Support him and be there for each other.





I am sorry for your loss. May comfort be there for your family now and forever.
Reply:First off let me say I am so sorry for your loss. It is a very difficult time I know. The best thing you can do for your older brother is be there. Go with him to make the arrangements. Be close to him. Lean on him and let him lean on you. Let him know that he has your full support in whatever decisions he has made or has to make now. Love him and he will know how much you appreciate and love him.





Again, I am truely sorry for your loss. May God be with you and your family during the upcoming times.
