My friend just lost his husband the other day. She is just 37 and her husband was 38. I feel pity for her becoming a widow at a very young age. She has two sons. Although she has a job, I can't help but feel sorry for her. What would life be after the burial? And how would she cope up with the grief of losing a loved one?

there are stages in grieving, at first you get angry because of the circumstance, then comes the bargaining part, where you will try to talk to God and ask for something in exchange for your loved ones being alive or to survive a crisis, then you feel depressed you can't do anything, at the end there is the stage of acceptance.
People go through this grief cycle, and some wallow in it, but your friend has to move on for her two sons.

I understand that its very hard to cope with after losing the beloved one. But its truth that man is mortal and we should be ready to face such situation. There are some widows here who are more younger than your mentioned one. So everything is determined.
Take care of her and yourself.

It is always very sad to hear these types of things.
I'm very sorry for her frieend.
Nobody should have to see their spous die that young in a marriage.
And Nobody SHOULD EVER have to pass away that young.
Honestly, I've never lost a VERY close person to me. So I can't be empathetic. Though, I will feel sympathy to your friend. I'm vvery sorry for your friend.
