Tip - Don't contact him for 60 days, no phone calls, no texts, no vague Facebook messages

No contact doesn't mean just don't see him...no phone calls, no texts, no vague Facebook messages. Cut him out of your life completely for 60 days -- even if you plan on being friends in the future. This will give you the time you need to get your emotions under control and let the healing begin.

 GET RID OF HIS STUFF
If you were married or in a long-term relationship, you probably have a lot of his things. Get them out of your house or apartment -- but don't call him to pick them up. Box up all his items and call a mutual friend to deliver them. If you don't have a mutual friend, put them into storage until he can pick them up (after the 60-day period).
