in this sentence, who's the him/her? is he/she who was passed away?

Yes.

Hi,

i want to know that its correct to say someone my thoughts and prayers are with him/her""

Yes, that's fine. However, If you say that, it means you are referring to the dead person. You might also say, eg to his wife, my thoughts and prayers are with you. 'You' here refers to the wife. It depends on wther you want to focus on the living or the dead.

thank you and i just got a question in this sentence you have written  It depends on wther you want to focus on the living or the dead can i use these idioms "either ~ or" or "neither ~ or" instead of "whether ~ or"? thank you in advance

Hi,

Whether is used to introduce an indirect question and to express doubt or the possibility of choice.

eg Direct question: Do you want tea or coffee?

Indirect question: He asked whether I wanted tea or coffee.

Either and neither don't have this type of meaning.
