What is the most thoughtful gift you can give a friend whose mother died?

I have a good friend whose mom died. Her mom lives in France so I could not go to the funeral. When she gets back this week, I would like to send something thoughtful to show I was thinking of her. I am looking for something other than the traditional flowers or meal. Thanks!

spend time with her. that would be the best gift, for her to know you are there for her.
Reply:Send yourself. The best gift is your companionship in her time of need.
Reply:A poem - written by you about how you feel. You can go on a poetry website to get ideas but you should write it yourself.
Reply:Give her your love and friendship, nothing more...nothing less.
Reply:A green plant to remind her of a beautiful life.
Reply:just be kind. that's the greatest gift. or maybe that with a special craft? hmm...
Reply:Why don't you bring her a basket of goodies. Chocolate or spa things are thoughtful and something just for herself.
Reply:I agree with the others that have responded. Your time is the most valuable thing that you can offer. My father just died this past week. Seeing the faces of my friends and family warmed my heart. If you feel like you need to send something, fresh fruit is a nice idea. There is a franchise called incredible edibles that make beautiful fruit bouquet baskets that are delicious.
Reply:If you can get a copy of a picture of her mom when she was pregnant with her, then take it to Kinko's and print out and frame it. There's a website with some excellent ideas that have always gotten me out of a rutt..





Good Luck and my deepest sympathies.
Reply:the one gift u can give her is your friendship and a shoulder to cry on when she need one
Reply:When my mother died, all I really wanted was someone to be there.





The cards and other things really didn't matter.





If you can't see her then maybe make a collage using some old photos of you two, and then at the end of it tell her your there for if she needs to talk etc.
