Description:
Florence Isaacs, whose Just a Note to Say ... has helped thousands of people to put their thoughts down on paper effectively, knows how hard it can be to write supportive, genuine, and meaningful words to someone who is grieving.
Expand description
In My Deepest Sympathies ..., she has gathered hundreds of sample letters that say what the bereaved most needs to hear as simply and briefly as possible. Isaacs covers the whole range of situations we may need to confront, from offering comfort to a close friend or relative to communicating less personally but still warmly to business associates and acquaintances.
Isaacs points out common pitfalls, touches on etiquette for funerals and memorial services, supplies information on other cultures, and offers guidelines for writing eulogies that aren't available anywhere else. But most of all, she helps us say what needs to be said, when it matters most.
