Sorry to hear of your loss, that can be very difficult to get through. May God's love and guidance see you and your family through.


It depends on how you know the person who sent them. If you all know them. It should be signed "The family". If it was a co-worker or a work relation person. IT should have his name and family of. If it is her acquaintance It should be her name and if she chooses put your names.
Reply:You can order preprinted condolance thank you cards. They typically say something like:


Thank You for your thoughts during this difficult time.


The Smith Family.





Nobody expects a grieving widow to handwrite thank you cards.
Reply:You do not have to send thank you cards,nobody expects them as the family is still grieving.
Reply:no, i think she should not send cards, she is the one with the lost, i lost my husband, and, dont have the mind to deal with that.
Reply:If she does send out cards then what ever way makes her feel better is fine. No one expects perfection at a time like this. It is just fine for them to see that she fells like the flowers have meant something.
