Eternal Light Thank You Card

After funeral services are over, what else is there to do? The loss weighs heavily in your heart, but you still have to continue your day-to-day life. It can feel exhausting, but you don’t have to let go so soon. 

Instead of pushing the thought of them to the back of your mind, take time to remember the life they lived and what you can take from this experience.

One way to do that is by thanking the people who came to offer support at the funeral. Funeral thank you notes so soon after a loss can be challenging to write. Know that it is okay to wait. Be sure to take the proper amount of time that you need.

The best thing you can do is let time pass and be genuine about your feelings. It is what everyone needs. The examples in this post are meant as guidance if you are struggling to find the right words to express your gratitude.
