What can I write....?

My daughter's partner's mum passed away and the funeral is on Wednesday. I had only met his parents twice because of distance between us. I would like to send some flowers. As I did not know her very well, what would be appropriate to write on the card? Serious answers only please. Thanks.

Doint send the flowers to the funeral, send them to the couple that you are thinking about at this time, keep the massage brief.
Reply:As you are actually writing a message directly to the deceased perhaps something like Sleep Well and add your name(s) or simply a message saying With Deepest Sympathy or if you still wish to get personal something like So sad we didn't get the time to get to know each other better.
Reply:"I didnt know her well, but she was a great woman. I am sorry for your lose, if you need anything Im here."
Reply:"Sorry for your loss, my thoughts are with you and your family."
Reply:We are very sorry for your loss.
Reply:just something simple like "thinking of you at this time" with you not knowing them well this should be enough
Reply:When you say you met his parents twice, were these encounters simply a hello and goodbye or did you spend any time having a conversation with them?





Even cliches like 'sorry for your loss' or 'my thoughts are with you and your family' are meaningful to people who are emotionally vulnerable and in need of support, but you could try and draw on specific things you remember from when you met the parents.





e.g. 'I will cherish the memory of meeting ....such a wonderful, gentle, kind person, with a beautiful bright smile, great fashion sense, who has done such a perfect job in raising her lovely son, who she can be proud of...before moving on to pastures new...' for example.





It might help to use a thesaurus to come up with kind words to use. But do try and overcome any awkwardness you may feel and make the words heartfelt. Your daughter's partner and his father will appreciate it
