I would say thank you for all the great moments that we've shared together. It's really hard to say goodbye to close friend that you've known ever since,

I would do much more listening than talking so as to make a judgement as to what words might comfort him the most. Then I'd decide what to say.

Listening is a good idea and like you say, you will be veru calculative with your words

I would tell them I loved them and will miss them. I would ask if there is anything they want me to take care of. I would assure my friend that they would be with me in my heart forever. Then I would cry with them. I remember my sister telling me that no one wanted to see her cry when she was dying. She and I did get to spend more then 8 hours crying but it is ok to cry because your friend would need to cry too.

Hello dear academic friend. I think that I would tell him or her that everything will be fine so long as he or she is happy with. I would ask him to let me know if there is still any other thing that he expects me to do for him so that he could have a more peaceful mind later on without having to leave something that would make him feel regretted about. There will be too many things to be expressed at such a critical moment as my mind will be sure to be at the lowest mood of the day.

Very kind of you William, you know what, by asking him to say more to you, he could tell you a secret and with it you could help his family better!
