Sympathy Letters

Quickly and effortlessly create heart-warming sympathy letters to express sorrow or concern

With WriteExpress software you get example sympathy letters to help you find the perfect words to say, plus choice phrases and sentences recommended by professionals.


How to express sympathy when a friend or relative suffers a loss:

  • Describe how much the deceased was respected and admired by you and others.

  • Mention a few of the deceased person's strengths, achievements, and successes.

  • If appropriate, include a short personal story or anecdote involving your relationship with the deceased.

  • Strike a careful balance between the formal tone of a sympathy letter and its deeply personal nature.

  • Remember that a mourner is emotionally drained, so keep your sympathy letter short—under one page in length.

  • If you can do so sincerely, offer to help in some way and include contact information such as your cell phone number and your email address.

  • If you have strong religious convictions, comfort the mourner with your belief that the deceased will find peace and happiness in a better world.

  • Put yourself in the mourner's place and imagine the kind of sympathy letter you would like to receive.



With WriteExpress, it is easy to find the right words for your sympathy letter.

  1. Choose from a variety of prewritten sympathy letters that cover many common situations. Copy your letter directly into Microsoft Word or your favorite word processor.

  2. Or let our software guide you step-by-step through the writing process, suggesting sample phrases and sentences for each writing step. In minutes, you can write an effective sympathy letter.
