Helpful Tips When Writing A Sympathy Card

Finding the right words can be challenging ... so here's a few helpful tips when writing a sympathy greeting:

Death is not the last sleep.  It is the final awakening - Walter Scott

Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God; I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Isaiah 41:10

Come to me, all who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.
Matthew 11:28

Thinking of you and wishing you moments of peace and comfort as you remember someone who was so close to you.

Wherever a beautiful soul has been, there is a trail of beautiful memories.
With Sympathy,

 A true friend is never truly gone. Your spirit will be living on in the memories we've made. You left this world, but not our hearts. Rest in peace. You will never be forgotten.

There's an Italian expression that says there are two things in life that will never leave you: the eye of God and the love of a mother.  With love and sympathy,
