Through a well written emotional condolence letter, you can express your grief and support to your relative or friend, in case of any casualty or sudden loss of his loved one. This letter plays a very important role in showing your sympathy in case you are not able to meet the person personally.
These letters should be short and sweet. It is really a tough task to find right words for these letters, so here is an example of emotional condolence letter. The sample is written on the sudden death of friend’s mother due to accident.
Dear Bradley,
It is really heartrending news that you have lost your mother recently. I am really shocked to know about this casualty and my support is with you. I remember the day when I first met her; she was a cheerful and jolly woman. I know that this is a difficult time for you but remember that there are so many people who love you and care about you. Remember that “Those who live in the hearts of others never die”.
I get to know that she had an accident by a truck due to careless driving of truck driver. You must take action against him and please tell me if you need any help in this procedure.
Thanks
Preston.
