Any ideas what to say?

[rizzy]

A friend of mine just met someone who told them that their dad passed away recently. She wants to send him a card or something. Do you guys have any ideas what to say?

"Sorry for your loss" is what most people seem to say. When my mom died that's what I heard a lot of, and still do. I know what they mean and it's a nice condolence but I feel very ackward replying back. Saying thanks or thank you seems too weird.

If she wants to send a card there are many well worded cards that could just do the speaking for her.

Here's a few I found for you.

May you find the courage to face tomorrow in the love that surrounds you today.

Although no words can really help
to ease the loss you bear,
just know that you are very close
in every thought and prayer.

May the love of those around you
help you through the days ahead.

May the love of friends and family
be a source of comfort to you
at this time

Those who live in the hearts of others....
Never die.
