You've gotten great advice. I would just add that the questions may keep coming up at the most unexpected time so try not to let them rattle you when it he asks about death on the way home from baseball or school. DS often throws those big deal questions at me in the car (I think this is common) or at bedtime (also common).
Prayers for your family.
