Condolences

Offering your condolences is one of the best ways to show you’re there for someone after a loss or death. Writing a condolence or sympathy message shows that you care for the person affected and their family, and it also gives the opportunity to offer help and care. With Shutterfly’s condolence cards, you can make sure you’re offering something that’s more personalized and sentimental than a store-bought card.

Inside your sympathy card, your condolences can include bible verses and quotes along with a special handwritten note from you. If you were close with the person who is gone, add photos of them to help cherish your special memories. Though dealing with a loss is never easy, your condolences can help give your loved ones hope and help them know they’re not alone. Browse our ideas for condolence cards and sympathy messages.
