how to respect without praying

how to respect without praying
so, not being a debbie downer at all, but i just lost my uncle a few hours ago. he was on my father's side, which is mostly jehova's witness. i don't know what to ask here, my mind is still a bit scrambled. not looking for condolences, not fishing for emotional words, he was very old and after being diagnosed he didn't suffer long (relatively speaking) - that i'm satisfied with. i just know they'll want me to pray and tho none of them are non-believers, they don't despise me. at the same time, i don't want to disrespect them. how would you handle this during whatever service or celebration of life the family will have, when it comes to prayer?
they can land a rover on mars, yet they still have to stick a human finger up my ass to do a prostate exam?! - ricky gervais
