Here are two sites that gives information on the etiquette for sympathy cards and a few examples. I hope it helps.

They don't have to be anything elaborate. You just need to say something short, sweet and sincere like:





Thank you for attending my father's funeral.





or





Your donation to %26lt;whatever%26gt; in his memory is very much appreciated.
Reply:Thank you for attending "name" funeral, I sincerely appreciate all of the love and support you game me and my family, also thanks you for the "gift"
Reply:Dear so and so,


Thank you so much for your support during my family's time of need. I very much appreciate it.





keep it short


(sorry to hear about your father)
Reply:How about something to the tune of "Thank you for coming (or sending flowers/donations/etc). It means a lot to us. He was a great man and will be sorely missed." I don't think some long note is required. These people know that this isn't an easy situation. If it were me, I wouldn't be expecting a thank you note and if I got one, just a simple "thanks" would be enough.
Reply:you could write thank you for your symphony during my sorrow and grief
Reply:I think that as hard as it is, you just need to tap into you feelings and be sincere. You could write someone elses words, but that won't be the same. Thank them for their love and support and for their friendship to your Father and family. Think about why you are thankful to these people and that is what you should write in these notes :)


Good Luck, I know it is hard, but by doing this it starts to help.


Sending you all he virtual strength I can to help you through this tough time

Reply:You don't need to write a thank you note for those who came to the funeral. They were paying their respects to your father and his family and that's only appropriate.





For those who sent flowers and made donations, something like this is fine:





"The family of (your father's name) would like to express their appreciation for your very thoughtful (gift of flowers/charitable gift in honor of our loved one.) We graciously welcome the continued celebration of his life."





Please accept my sympathies on your loss. Sometimes having to deal with the practical items can be therapeutic... and I hope this is the case for you as you get through all the afterstuff.
Reply:why is this under business and finance?
Reply:That's an awfully nice gesture on your part. Don't make a big deal of it. Just keep it short and concise. Express how you feel. My condolences to you.
Reply:try something like "we appreciate that you are with us in these unfaithful moments"...I'm not good at writing like you, but i have ideas!
Reply:Say thank You very much for coming to my dads funeral it makes me feel a little bit better inside about my fathers passing.





Sincerely,


Whatever your name is

Reply:Personally, I'd say how it was nice that you came and by doing so you've shown you really cared about my father. I hope this is enough to get sarted. Just ask if you need more matireal.
