If I were you I would go just to be with your friend. I know how it feels to come home and find a loved one dead. 32 years ago I came home from work, walked in the house and found my husband dead and he was only 34. I had talked to him at noon (he was at work) and it happened just after he got home and just before I came home. If I am anything to go by your friend will be in shock for awhile and need all his friends around. I know I did and my friends were great.
