Andre Said:

how would you write a letter of condolence?

We Answered:

Things like, "thinking of you in your time of loss," "with deepest sympathy," "our prayers are with you," "Sorry for your loss," things like that might be good. Also, if there was a more personal connection, you could say more personal things. Maybe share anecdotes about your memories of the relative who passed away. It probably depends on what level of relationship you had with her or the family and how well you knew her.

How do I write a meaningful condolence letter?

We Answered:

I am sorry for your loss of so and so. So and so and I haven't seen each other in many years. I wish I could have kept in close contact with him. I remember when we were kids, we did many things together. I don't know why we moved apart. Life, I guess, just got in the way. I wish I had realized this sooner so we could have kept in touch more often. Perhaps so and so's death has given me the gift of paying attention to these kinds of things and not letting everyday life get in the way of keeping in touch with family.

We Answered:

can't you just buy a nice sympathy card and include a short note of condolence, something short but sincere, like ' We are so sorry for your loss and are keeping you and your families in our thoughts and prayers'

How Do I Write a Condolence Letter?

We Answered:

Straight from the heart...it isn't that hard to do...

Things like "While we did not know him as well as we would have liked to, we have nothing but good thoughts and memories of him"

"We cannot fully grasp the pain you feel, but we want you to know that he, and you, are in our hearts and our prayers"

"We cannot be there physically for you at this time, but we hope that you feel our presence in your hearts during this difficult time".

Be honest about the not being close - and offer your thoughts and prayers to the survivors - they'll appreciate it - and they know that you didn't know him that well - so they aren't expecting to get an "we don't know how to go on without him" kind of letter.
