Funeral worries.

At least the lady was in the older age group. The last one I went to was for my son's friend, age 30, who'd committed suicide. Sometimes words just don't come because you are so choked up yourself , but it's good to go and to "be there" for the family.

I'm sure there will be lots of people there, and yours will be one of many condolences given. Just say you're so sorry, and that you're there for them at this time. Nothing you say will sound awkward to them , I promise you. They'll just be glad to see you there.

Thank you everyone. I'm filling up just thinking about how difficult it's going to be for them all tomorrow. I'm going to work straight afterwards tomorrow as well so I'm definitely not looking forward to that.

Just be there and don't worry about saying much. The worst funeral I ever went to was the 14 year old daughter of a friend. Everybody was completely beyond speech but we were all glad to be there to offer support.

I agree with what's already been said that just being there will be enough for them . Just give them a hug and say something along the lines of "I'm here if you need me" but only if you mean it of course. Add your sympathies too and that will be enough for now then you can always give them some of your time at a later date by taking a bit of baking around and staying for a chat but be prepared to talk about the deceased lady as it will bring them some comfort.
Funerals are always tough aren't they?

Agree with janeainsworth in that just attending the funeral is giving great support. A hug to your boss and his wife can often be better than saying anything. It will take time for your boss/friend to accept the loss so just be there for the family and give a shoulder to cry on. Never an easy day for family and friends but you and they will get through it.

Your presence will give comfort to the family, wildroses.
You don’t have to say anything more than how sorry you are, and what a lovely lady she was, and acknowledge how hard it is for them all.
