Maybe you can do a project together to help someone else in the name of this adult child . A day with purpose passes much more quickly than one with no purpose . Turn the sadness into joy with a group project. Lots of people need help this year ,find away to make a difference . Bill

i think bluesman has a terrific answer!  
In addition, I would probably just come right out and say something like, "I can't begin to imagine how difficult the holidays are going to be for you." and then just say that you want to do whatever you can to help them get through them.  Telephone often, just to check in and be a listening ear.  Get him and/or her out for coffee and conversation, some shopping, even getting a bouquet out to the cemetary.  
You are a true friend to be concerned and anxious to help them through this really hard time.
