Condolence Messages for Every Situation
It's a good idea to consult some of the condolence message samples we have provided before writing your own sympathy message. A condolence message should convey thoughts of love and support to the bereaved, but it should impart that sentiment in a brief and considerate way. It can be written on a card attached to a bouquet of sympathy flowers or gift, and can range in length from a single sentence to a few paragraphs.
