I'm so sorry for your son and daughter.
I would definitely talk to him about it. It doesn't have to be a major discussion, I found the best way to start these kinds of conversations with my kids when they were teenagers was just as a kind of "by the way" thing. So, whilst I was doing something else like cleaning a room or something and they were there, I would just say something like "it must be really hard losing xxxx like that - how are you doing with that?"
I know that each child is different and it depends on the relationship you have with them, but mine tended to open up more if I didn't make a big fuss out of the "chat".
Big hugs to you and your son and daughter as well. It's hard on the kids and it's hard on the parents too, watching their children deal with something like this.
