    I always try to write a encouraging quote when I have to one of these cards. If the person is someone I am really close to, I'll send a quote along with some of my own words of inspiration.

    Thank you. I am never really sure what to write when I send a sympathy card. Saying I am sorry just seems so plain. You feel like you want to write something great that will lift the person's spirits but it seems I always fall short.

    Each time I've had to do this, everything I say sounds trite. Thanks for the tips.

    Thank you for all your helpful information. I have been trying to get my friend out of her depression after her father passing. Thank you for all your help and tips. God bless you.

    Thanks for the resource. I needed a few funeral messages and ideas for a cousin's memorial, and this has really helped.

    This was very helpful to me. The Mother of a customer of mine passed away, so I wanted to send a card, but I wasn't sure what to say. This lens helped tremendously.
    Thanks!

    This is a wonderful lens. Thanks especially for including information on how to properly acknowledge pet loss. I am lens rolling this to my own greeting card lens. *****

    A very wonderful, helpful lens. I know that Sympathy Cards can be stepping stones to healing and have meant so much to me in the past. I try to send our Thanksgiving Prayer Card to anyone who has lost someone special through the year. I have also given a pretty box for cards to be kept in. Thank you for this very meaningful lens.

    Wonderful lens. I've needed this information many times. I find it difficult to write on greeting cards, especially sympathy cards. Thank you for the valuable insights and info. Bear hugs, Frankie
