Many years ago, someone wrote a letter to Billy Graham in his column. She said that her uncle had killed himself, and asked how someone could ever do something like that.

His response was basically this: “Please don’t judge your uncle for what he did, because you have no idea what kind of pain and torment he may have been going through.”

That’s wise advice for all of us. Regardless of whether you liked the person who died by suicide, I think the best response is simply to express sorrow and warmly extend compassion, and then to keep the family of the victim in prayer. And just leave it at that. Or if you can’t say something compassionate, I think it’s best to just stay silent.
