Bereavement Thank You Note to a Family Member 

Thank you all for guiding me through what was a tragic loss in my life.  I was able to cope due to your care and support.  Your presence was a huge comfort and will never be forgotten.  Your help and advice was invaluable.  I’m not sure I could have coped without it.  

Thank you for all the help with practical day to day issues, plus all the paperwork and planning involved with our loss.  

Words just don’t seem adequate to relay my thanks.  My love always.  

Bereavement Thank You Note to a Good Friend

You have always been such a close friend, never more so than during this sad time.  It is a relief to know that I can always rely on a shoulder to cry on from someone who listens and gives considered advice.  

I want you to know just how much I value our friendship.  It was a lucky day for me when we met. You are always there to share the good and the bad times.  Thank you for being my rock during this difficult period. 

After the Funeral Thank You Note To All Our Friends at Church: 

Our family feel privileged to have so many supportive friends in our church community.

Your kindness and support to our family during this sad time was very special to us.  The service was very moving and such a comfort.  The church looked beautiful with the flower arrangements. 

The buffet prepared for the congregation was presented with so much care.  Many thanks to the ladies who cooked the food and served the teas and coffee so efficiently.  

All your efforts helped our family to cope with what was a difficult day for us and your kindness will never be forgotten.  

Many thanks for all the personal cards and messages received from all our friends.  We look forward to seeing you all again very soon.
