Condolence messages should be short, simple, and sincere while expressing sympathy and support for the recipient of the message. It is important to avoid focusing on your own sense of loss and instead, focus on offering comfort to the bereaved. Electronic media can be an option but traditional forms of communication such as a handwritten note or card can be more personal and meaningful. It is also important to avoid focusing on the future and instead offer condolences for the present loss of the deceased.
