[steffanie]

i would like to know whatt idioms may i use in a condolence letter,for eg to express what type of person he was,or how i express my grief etc etc.

If it's formal, use something like 'commiserations' to express your wish to share grief. I would recommend just saying how you actually felt about the person, rather than trying to be formulaic when dealing with the character of the person who has died.

I share in your grief and send my love,
to tear someone up-the news of his/her death tore me up,
I am so sorry to hear about...
With a heavy heart-sadly...
My love and concern are with you always...
You are continually in my thoughts and prayers,
My heart and my tears are with you,
Is there anything I can do for you right now?...
