Together.� Why Send a Condolence Message?
Many times we we think the grieving individual wants space, but that is usually not the case. Condolences bring comfort to the bereaved and let them know that you are thinking of them. This is particularly meaningful if you are far away and unable to attend the funeral or remembrance service. Expressing condolences can be difficult, heart-breaking, awkward, distressing and sometimes even embarrassing. It is not something one does everyday and very few people can claim to be skilled at this. Very often, people simply feel that it is better to ignore the event and carry on with your life, leaving the bereaved to sort themselves out and come to terms with the death. Here are a few points to re-consider if you are in two minds about sending condolences.
Take the time and do the right thing. If you are not good with words and are struggling to decide what to say, take a look at our selection of condolence cards and messages. They will give you ideas and help you choose the correct thoughts and words to convey your feelings. [Top] Should I Send A Condolence Message?When you learn about the death of a person, you are filled with a variety of emotions. These will vary depending on how close you were to that person or under what circumstances your lives touched one another. Letting the bereaved know that you care will mean a lot. Reaching out and offering your condolences is always a good choice.
Always be true to yourself. Don�t write words that you don�t feel are true. If the person was not close to you, simply express condolences and good wishes. If the person was close, a personal note will bring much needed comfort to those reading the condolence messages. [Top] How To Write a Condolence Message
