How To Write A Thank You For Funeral Flowers

However, it is expected and thank you notes should be written and sent out within 2-3 weeks of receiving the flowers.

If you don't feel up to it, enlist the help of a family member or friend who can help with the purchasing of the stationery and be responsible for the mailing. That leaves you to only think about the wording.


Bear in mind your family and friends won't expect a lengthy note, a few lines of gratitude is all that is necessary. Simple thank you wording is all that is required.

Hand write the thank you notes if possible. You funeral home can usually supply tasteful cards with appropriate funeral thank you verses or even funeral thank you poems on them. That leaves you just to write a simple "Thank you very much".

Alternatively you can purchase pre-printed cards and write a line or two.

Dear Harriet,

Thank you so much for your love and support during this difficult time, it is so greatly appreciated. The beautiful wreath you sent was spectacular, and I know that Mum would have loved the sunflowers as they were one of her favourites in the garden.
