Words of Condolence

We are not born knowing what the perfect words of condolence are. We learn by experience and finding the wording for a sympathy card often overwhelms us.

It's never easy for us when someone in our lives loses someone. It's extremely difficult for any family and it is important to show your love and support. I always think about the smile my note, flowers or sympathy card will put on my friends face. Whether we are very close or mere acquaintances the act of human kindness never is forgotten.

I hope you find my site helpful. I have learned what really warms the heart the hard way and am very happy I can share with you.
