So sad

I am so very sad tonight, we learnt that a friend from way back in the day has passed away, we read about it on Facebook, we have not been in contact for 35 years now, but from the age of 16-25 we were the best of friends and even after we both married we socialised all 4 of us, he was just 63. I can't stop crying it was such a shock I'm 60 and not yet at an age when I expect friends to start dying off. Although we live some distance away we are hoping to be able to go to the funeral to pay our last respects.
At the moment my mental health is not all it could be and I must try not to let this push me over the edge.
I hope its ok to post this ?
