My favorite of these happened to a list of "ParticularSoftwareToolDistibGroup". It was just a mild announcement, like, "tool will be unavailable starting Saturday at midnight and ending at 2am Sunday".
The number of people who replied "why am i on this list?", "remove me" - you are on the list because you have the tool. Do you not use the tool? Id they remove you, you won't get updates about the tool.

I've discussed my dead father's stuff with account people; I'm not grieving him with a stranger on the phone. This is business, not therapy. In fact, keeping it professional is a welcome crutch to get through a call like that.
Say the "sorry for your loss" in your script to feign empathy and get on with it.
