Agree with Shawn. My Dad died Dec 21st 97 and while it was expected, it was still good having friends around just to hang out with. I didn't need them to take me out and get me loaded, just take me out and shoot some pool or do whatever.
The hardest thing is what you've discovered, how do you act? I wanted people to treat me as they always would. If they had a joke to tell, tell it. Laugh at something, get mad, whatever. As hard as it is, just don't walk on eggshells around your friend.
