Need help with a condolence message

[maximus maximus]

Guys

I need to write a condolence message for a friend who has passed away. Can anyone suggest a good line?

Hm... I tried, but I can't come up with anything that's not irreverent.

Any other suggestions?

Plz...

The classic condolence message has three things:

1. Dear (person you're writing the letter to), I am saddened by the news of the death. (shocked, heartbroken, etc)

2. I remember (a very short memory about the dead person).

3. Thinking of you in this sad time, Your signature.


You'll probably get some good ideas from Google. Following standard etiquette is your best bet for something like this.

Sorry to hear of your friend's passing.
