If people would like to mail the card from the other side of the country, they will have to make sure it gets there fast enough. If they are going to send it by express mail, extra charges will apply. Envelopes that are give the right amount of postage will surely get to the destination city in time.
Individuals should also try to determine if the family they are mailing the card to is religious or secular. Secular families will generally not want to receive notes with Bible verses. Likewise, families that are steeped in religion will not want to be told that death is the end of all being.
There is nothing wrong with sending a nice set of flowers with the card. As long as the flowers themselves are fresh and vibrant, all will be fine. A dozen roses or so, for example, can be used during the wake or placed near the graveside. This will be a very nice gesture indeed.
In the end, funeral remembrance cards will be an important part of the ceremony. With a few words of endearment, friends of the family can send along their condolences. This should allow the affected loved ones to mourn in peace. The support of others will mean the world to them.
