Loss is something we all must experience at one point and sometimes we need a little help.

Not everyone believes that our loved ones go on to exist in an afterlife of some sort. And while your intentions are the best, this could upset someone even more by making them feel as if they aren't 'allowed' to grieve because their loved ones are better off.
Don't give someone a timeline for their grief. It could take weeks, months, or years to truly feel at peace with something. The grief will never truly leave you, you will just be better equipped to deal with it.
Right now it may feel as if they will never smile again. They probably can't imagine making it through this day, much less a year.
