While it is always recommended that a floral arrangement, gift basket or mass card is acknowledged with a thank you card it is considered optional to send one when receiving sympathy cards. Sometimes, the sheer volume of cards received makes it challenging.
The most traditional method of sending an acknowledgement is through a handwritten note. However, in today's digital age, it is also acceptable to use printed cards or even emails, depending on your relationship with the recipient and their means of communication.
We recommend that you be brief and direct, but also personal -- a reference to a particularly fine quality you admired in the deceased is always appreciated. Remember that your note should lift the spirit and should remind the recipient that he or she is in your thoughts, and avoid overly emotional or flowery language.
From an individual: A personal message may be written on the acknowledgement. From an organization: Send an acknowledgement to the leader and write a message referring to other members.
