Believe it or not, this is the first sympathy card I ever sat down to write in my 34 years. I usually intensely think about how I should write one and then cannot come up with anything to say. It was time to grow up as a neighbor with whom we have quite a bit of contact lost her father to old age and illness last Saturday.
I realise that "sympathy" isn't written strait and the ink splattered on the envelope but better done than ideally perfect in my mind don't you think?

Any words of sympathy are always appreciated. Your card is beautiful and I'm sure she loves that you are reaching out to her.

That is a beautiful card. several years ago i wrote a post about how to write a sympathy card and it is still one of my most visited posts. It must pop up in google searches quite regularly. I am sure you did a wonderful job and, as Lisa said, any words of sympathy are appreciated.
