[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I would send a card to the surviving spouse (if there is one) or her parents.  Just saying you were friends from a long time ago, lost touch, but you have fond memories of good times together...and send your condolences to her children. [/b]

There's not much more you can do.

I don't think it's weird or creepy to wonder about the cause of death for a younger person or one of your peers.  Especially a friend from way back.  It doesn't make you a morbid, creepy or insensitive person.  If you don't let it go after months and months, that's probably more about you.  There is no indication that's happening here.

Last night while watching The Bachelorette (yep!), I googled the contestant who they say died.  I was just curious.  It was an accident while paragliding.  That was the end of my "research."[/quote]

I agree that sending your condolences may help you get closure as well as provide some comfort to her surviving family (not sure if comfort is the right word). [/quote]
