Basics You Need To Know About Funeral Cards

If it is necessary for you to send a letter of sympathy for a grieving family, consider sending commercially sold funeral cards as a convenient option. You can offer the note with a flower bouquet or by itself. If you are remotely located in another country, it is also acceptable to send a message through email.

You may be able to find nice notes at a neighborhood bookshop. It is also a good gesture to write a message yourself. If you are handwriting is not clear, you should remember that there are store bought notes with pre-printed messages that you can just sign and mail.

In most cultures, it is expected that grieving friends and relatives send letters of sympathy. They can be sent if you attend the memorial service or not. It is essential to do so if you cannot go to the deceased person's interment. It is acceptable to mail the note after or prior to the burial.

The bereaved family on the other hand would usually send a note of thanks to those who attended the memorial service or sent a letter of sympathy. Typically someone in the family of the deceased will eventually send thank you messages after the burial. This can happen 1 to 4 weeks after the interment.

Sending a bundle of flowers with a note is also common practice. Try to send a bouquet during the wake, before the actual burial. You can have a flower delivery service do this for you. Just make sure that the blossoms come with a personal sympathy note from you.

Ready-made funeral cards can be found at bookstores and online. Read the content first before buying one to make sure that the message is in line with what you want to say. You can certainly add a short handwritten note in it to make it more personal.
