Gone from our sight,
But not from our hearts,
In your time of grief,
We'll never be apart.

Tears may flow like rain,
But know you're not alone,
In this time of loss and pain,
Friends and family are your home.

Though they've taken their final flight,
Their spirit remains by your side,
In the darkest of the night,
They're the stars in which to confide.

Wishing someone strength is a small but deeply meaningful gesture in times of loss. A few simple words can offer comfort and remind someone they are not alone. Whether you write “With deepest sympathy” or “Wishing you strength and courage”, it’s the thought behind the words that truly matters.

When offering strength and comfort after a loss, you can choose either a personal note or a general message of sympathy. Examples include:

• Wishing you much strength today and in the difficult days ahead.

• With heartfelt sympathy and compassion.

• Wishing you peace, love, and comfort in this time of sorrow.

• Sincere condolences on the loss of your loved one.

These words can provide support, even when you don’t quite know what to say. It’s often not the length of the message that matters most, but the genuine care it conveys.
