Help me write a sympathy message. I don't want to say the wrong thing.
WHO I'M WRITING TO: [[RECIPIENT]]
THEIR LOSS: [[LOSS]]
MY RELATIONSHIP TO THEM: [[RELATIONSHIP]]
A MEMORY OR DETAIL (if any): [[DETAIL]]
Write something that:
- Acknowledges the loss simply and sincerely
- Avoids clichés and "at least…" silver linings
- Offers specific support if appropriate
- Is warm and brief
Give a short version and a slightly fuller one. Gentle tone.
