Witnessing death gives an unhappy thought, so does losing a friend. Not sure if  one unhappy thought is more negative than another. I always assumed they're all equal.

if someone dies completely isolated, no witnesses at all, not even pets, and no body is ever found, it's possible to prevent bad thoughts somehow (some extra work may be involved as well)

I thought dwarves get the recently lost a friend/spouse/child/etc when Urist McLost has been missing for 1 week.
