Testimonials

I wanted to take a moment to thank Ms. Dee for always being so pleasant and just an absolute pleasure to work with. During such a difficult time in our lives, Ms Dee treated my family like her own . She is very polite and empathetic and made us feel like we mattered. With all the craziness that has come in 2020 amidst COVID, it's reassuring to know that there are still good caring people in this world. I wanted to make sure Ms. Dee knew how much her kindness contributed to the healing for our family. Thank you for being you!

Thank you Northridge Woodhaven for taking such great care of our family at a time we needed extra. The loss of a child is never easy, yet alone the loss of an infant is even more devastating. Mrs. Dee was so compassionate and gentle with all the intricate details down to assisting with the design of the memorial to celebrate our dear Bailey. Thank you again Northridge staff for your care and compassion and thank you Mrs. Dee for being where God must have had a hand at placing you to love on His people at their time of need.

Tips on Writing a Message of Condolence

You may not know exactly what you want to say in your Book of Memories™ condolence message. In fact, this may be the first time you've ever been faced with sharing your feelings or offering comforting words to someone who is grieving a loss. Whether it's the first time, or the fifth, we're here to offer some assistance. We've compiled some tips, and brought together a list of expressive words you can use in your condolences.

Tip #1: Be sincere. It's important to mean what you say, on the deepest emotional level. Yes, we know, "saying what you mean" can be harder - that's why we're here.

Tip #2: Keep it simple. You don't need to say much more than "I'm sorry for you loss," yet it's always wonderful to share a personal memory of their loved one, if you have one.

Tip #3: Don't tell them you know how they feel. Because you can't really know; even if you've endured the loss of a loved one in the past - your grief was yours, and this is theirs.

Tip #4: Share how you felt when you heard the news. Perhaps you were shocked, disbelieving, or deeply saddened. Let them know how the passing affected you personally.

Tip #5: Share Remind them that you will always hold the memory of their loved one close to you. It will be a comfort to them to know that their loved one will be remembered.
