Floral Card Messages

Most people are concerned that they will upset or offend the person who is receiving their words of sympathy. Inappropriate phrases might be: “I know what you are going through.” The reality is that you probably don’t know what the person is going through, and even if you do, your comments could come across as minimizing their suffering and pain. Here are a few suitable choices for your sympathy card message:

  • With my deepest sympathy or You are in my thoughts and prayers.
  • With love to you and your family / In loving memory.
  • With heartfelt condolences. My thoughts are with you at your time of need.
  • I want you to know that I am here for you at this time of grieving.
  • Thinking of you in these difficult times.
  • Please know our loving thoughts embrace you.
