Condolence Messages For Losing A Child
Sending condolences to those who have lost a child is a way to show sympathy for their loss. The loss of a child is among the most devastating things that can ever occur to someone. Since losing a child cannot be compared to other losses, a child is the most cherished person.
Condolences can be sent via text message or condolence cards to the parent or other bereaved family members. Additionally, video messages with condolences and remarks for the family can be used to express sympathy wishes.

Don’t wait too long to offer your condolences; start planning your response as soon as you learn about the loss. As soon as you can, call or send a message, but keep it short.

Sympathy Messages For Losing A Spouse
Couples make plans for every part of their lives, from having children to growing old together. Their plan is to stay together as long as possible, but they don’t plan for death. Because of this, when one of them dies, it’s almost impossible for the other to deal with such a big loss.
Losing a spouse can be the most painful thing a person can go through. You’ve dreamed up a whole life together. You can’t wait to go home at night and tell that one person everything that happened during the day. It’s like having a best friend as a husband. A person you can be yourself around. You can call this person your home. He listens to you, helps you when things are hard, and believes in you even when no one else does. It’s like losing your home when you lose your husband. You feel like you’re a stranger in your own home.

Sympathy Etiquette
Be thoughtful, show you care, and lend a listening ear. Sometimes it’s best to say a few words and then stay quiet and listen to the griever.
Remember that this is a very hard time for everyone in the family. So don’t think you can “lift their spirits.” Nothing you say or do will make them feel better about what happened. Instead, put more effort into making people feel better and being kind.
Offer Comfort
Instead of trying to find the perfect words, just say, “I’m so sorry for your loss.” Then be quiet and really hear what your friend has to say.
Act kindly
Even if you sent a note of sympathy, you should still call to say you’re sorry. If you are close to the person who survived, go see them and bring them food.
Offer to help in some way. If the person is taking care of funeral arrangements, offer to watch their kids, help them with a chore, or do something else to make their life easier.
At the Service
Talk to each family member and tell them you’re sorry, but don’t talk for too long. Now is the time to go to the funeral, show that you care, and give the family some space if they need it. You can also take funeral flowers.
But if you are good friends with one of the family members who are still alive, they may want to talk to you a little longer. Be there for them, but don’t worry about saying the right thing. Don’t say anything if you don’t know what to say. To show you care, it’s often best to just listen or give them a hug.
After the Service
Give your friend a few days after the funeral to grieve with her family. Then give them a call and see if they want to talk. Listen to what they say and accept what they say. If they don’t want to talk, don’t take it to heart.
Send them a card in a few weeks to let them know you’re thinking of them. Again, you should offer to help and be ready to listen. So many people offer their condolences right after someone dies, but this tends to stop soon after the funeral.
