I am speechless but I'd like to send her an email, since she emailed us to tell us he passed... we weren't close but are from the same house of worship...

What would you say? (I'm married too and I wouldn't know what to do if it were me!)

  1. just email her back and say," I am so sorry to hear about your husband (or you can use his name). May god grant you peace in this time of sorrow. Our prayers are with you." Then sign your names. Its the thought that counts. Even the smallest of gestures.


  2. I'm deeply sorry for your loss.

    (Insert the spouses name)  was a great person.

    Our prayers are with you.

    If they had children, ask how they are coping with the loss.

  3. Tell her how sorry you are for her loss and  that it is hard for you to imagine what she's going through. Tell her you wanted her to know that you were thinking of her.  You can tell her to call if she needs any help or, better yet, in about a month or so call her up and ask her to go to lunch, shopping or a movie.  She will probably be feeling very lonesome and appreciate your offer.

  4. Just  let her know that you are sorry for her loss. And if there is anything that you can do for her, to let you know.  Maybe you can cook her a dish and take it over to her house or send flowers.  

  5. My deepest Condolences?!

  6. Everything happens for a reason and hes in a better place now. Also Your truly sorry this happened.

    I guess thats a horrible thing to say because I got 2 thumbs down, how lame.

  7. You say "I am sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you."

  8. How about, Dear so an so, I was so sorry to hear of your husbands passing. I can only imagine how you must feel or what you may be going through. Please except my deepest condolences. Please if there's anything i can do, Please don't hesitate to ask. My heart goes out to you and your family.   Sincerely, ???? Then maybe bring over a casserole. Maybe the House of worship will be setting up a dinner or something like that you could send over a dish. Something like a comfort food so to make sure she doesn't forget to eat. When My husband passed away from cancer i know it was a great big help for me and my family. Hope this helps. My prayers are with all that knew her.
