Maybe some of them wrote him an email or called him. When I notice a post about difficulties my gfs are facing on facebook, I make sure to take time out to call. They do the same for me. Since the death of a loved one is of a personal nature, not everyone is going to post a public condolence. Although, I'm sure that, no, not everyone of those people are his true friends.
