Suffering the loss of a loved one is devastating and each of us grieves that loss in our own way. However, when that loss affects a dear friend or business colleague, you want to reach out and just let them know they are in your thoughts. Sending business sympathy cards is the ideal way to do that without being invasive. It doesn’t intrude on a very private time, yet sends the message that someone shares their pain.
Having an elegant, classic assortment box of sympathy cards on hand, appropriate for personal or business use, would be ideal. Just as perfect as they are with a simple, heartfelt sentiment, there is also enough room for a personalized note, lending a warm, heartfelt touch. Sometimes just knowing others are remembering you at such a difficult time helps the pain a bit.
Oh how true this is. When my 14 year old niece passed away last year, all of my co-workers sent me and my sister sympathy cards. As we went through the cards, of course she didn’t recognize most of the names and I would say, card after card – oh that’s someone I work with. She was amazed at how many people expressed their sympathy. I was so proud and thankful that all of my coworkers cared enough to think of us in such a way. It doesn’t diminish the pain of losing our loved one but it does help knowing that people genuinely care about you.
