Words of Sympathy for Loss of Mother

A mother is, alongside a father, arguably the most important person in someone’s life. They bring you up, help you grow, protect and support you.

They are there for all the most important moments of your life. So the grief the loss of a mother produces will make it one the most trying and difficult times in a persons life.

When someone experiences losing their mom you may find yourself in the position of wanting to send a condolence card. But finding the right words that can somehow provide comfort or support might feel virtually impossible. And, frankly, it is.

Nothing you can say will bring her back or take away the pain of the loss. But wanting to avoid offence and striking the right tone is an understandable worry.

If that’s the case then hopefully the examples below will help you to write a sympathy message for someone who has lost their mother. If you choose to write your own rather than copy one if the prewritten below then remember to speak from the heart.
