X's father's death #1 (permalink) Tue Oct 28, 2008 10:47 am   X's father's death		  
Hi,

My friend Y told me that X's father passed away. How to respond in such a situation? Are any of the sentences below ok? If not, could someone please tell me the right way to respond?

* I am sorry to hear about X's father's passing away.
* I am sorry to hear about X's father's death.
* I am sorry to hear about X's loss.

Regards,
Muktha

All three sentences are fine and perfectly interchangeable.
