What to Write on Funeral Flowers for Family

Just as important as selecting the perfect funeral flowers are the words of love included within funeral flowers. These words offer an opportunity to share a meaningful and heartfelt message which not only shows respect, but offers comfort to family members during the toughest of times. 

 

In this article, we’ll share some advice for what to write on funeral flowers selected for family members.

Why Is It Important to Add a Personal Message to Funeral Flowers?

As well as taking a personal approach to selecting funeral flowers by carefully considering the chosen florals or design, adding a message is also a way to add deeper meaning. 

 

This gesture provides the perfect opportunity to share condolences and personal messages that family members can find comfort in during the grieving process. While the act of sending flowers expresses love and sympathy, sometimes the greatest comfort is found in the power of words.

Examples of What to Write on Funeral Flowers for Family Members

Messages included with funeral flowers can be any length and cover a range of topics such as memories or quotes. If you’re looking for a shorter message which shows respect and love for a family member who has passed away, any of the following are ideal:

 

• In loving memory.

• With love and fond memories.

• Cherishing your memory always.

• You will always be in our hearts.

• With heartfelt love and treasured memories.

 

When crafting longer messages, including personal experiences and memories is ideal. This not only offers a sentimental way to reflect on the deep connection with the loved one who has passed away, but can be a healing experience for anyone who reads the message. Whether it is a fond memory that brings a smile to the faces of close relatives, or a heartfelt message about the lasting impact a loved one will leave, it’s best to write from the heart. 

 

Cards can also be tailored based on the type of relation that has been lost to offer even more of a heartfelt message. Whether you’ve lost a grandparent, cousin or sibling, this allows a way to acknowledge the unique connection you had. As an example, the below statements are lovely examples for included on a card for a parent: 

 

• Mum/Dad, you filled my life with love and joy. Rest peacefully.

• You were the most loving and selfless mother/father, and I am forever grateful.

 

Another instance in which finding the right words to include on funeral flowers may be difficult  is when dealing with the death of a partner. The message will remain between you and them, making it a deeply personal and healing opportunity to express your love through words. Some examples include:

 

• In your arms, I found my forever home.

• Your love is imprinted on my soul forever.

• Grateful for a lifetime of precious memories.

 

No matter who you're writing a sympathy card to, just know that any words included will be perfect for showing respect to a loved one.
