What's wrong with telling it like it is? He's dead! He died! Get real!:(

not all of us have a heart of cold steel .

they all have exactly the same meaning anyway .
Saying "he's dead" does seem to have more of a shock value , in some circumstances .

1452898 2018-08-20 00:56:00 I remember a couple of lines from an Aussie comedy show a few years ago where a granddaughter was going shopping with Grandma where Grandad had died just a couple of weeks previously.

Her mother told her to try not to mention Grandad as Grandma got really upset thinking about him dying.

All went well till Grandma was looking for somewhere to park the car and granddaughter pipes up. "....over there Granny, there's a pa cark"
