First of all, I am sorry to hear of this very sad news. Losing someone you love is always hard on anyone.
You don't need to say a lot of things to the person who is experiencing the loss. Anything that comes from the very bottom of your heart, is fine. If you feel sad, tell them that a lot of people/friends also feel the loss. And you will be there if he needs a hug or to talk. Tell him that his little brother has marked his place in the world just by being his cute loveable kid himself, and that is how he will be remembered.
Btw, I am not going to comment on your age group [though I do think that you at 13-15 you seem a bit young to be engaged].
Be strong, sweetheart!
