People who are grieving get a full pass from me. No thank you, too many thank yous, it’s all okay because I refuse to judge someone in pain.

I don’t think she needs to send all those thank-you notes. But if she wants to … no reason not to. And if she didn’t send any at all, I wouldn’t hold it against her, either. It’s nice of you to offer to help.

"Should" is a word I struggle with according to my therapist. 😅
Some people order a ton of Thank Yous when someone passes while others only order a handful.
I think sending a picture is actually a nice touch as not as many people are able to see what they send. (Though heads up some people may be surprised that their 800-FLOWERS flowers aren't as nice as they expected).
A thank you for attending is a nice touch if someone signed the guest book. Of course it's not a requirement but I don't think it's something that should be looked down/frowned at.

A friend who lives across the country suddenly lost her husband. I sent a heartfelt card, and she sent a Ty card. I was surprised, but it was a sweet gesture, and I imagine reflecting on all those who care is therapeutic.
