Terminal Illness Sympathy Cards Request

I have two people that I know of (and care quite a bit about) who are actively in the process of dying--and calling to speak with them or visiting them in person is out. I would like to send them sympathy cards to comfort and encourage them.

Please note: the kind of cards that I'm looking for aren't 'Get Well' cards. While I believe in miracles, and I hope and pray for the same for each of them, I also want to exercise tact and discretion.

Messages of hope and faith would be well received by either. They're both Christian. Thanks. 🌹
Messages that I am particularly looking for would include appropriate Bible verses and thoughts like: "You matter to me" and "you made a difference in my life, and I am grateful."

I will be needing some condolence cards as well, and I am also happy to share your cards with others.

My condolences to you and the families. What I have right now are sympathy cards. They all have a special message on the inside.

This is a small collection but it also has a sympathy plaque and guestbooks.

Thank you so much to everyone who has shared cards here. I'm working on a blog post--and will finish it up tomorrow.

I don't think I can share any further cards than what is already here. 🙂

I wish I had read this first... I just reworked two of my sympathy cards into comfort and encouragement cards... Oh well, they are probably needed and I had never thought about that need before...

You can always make more cards with a new message and different keywords.

This is a sympathy card. I forgot all about it. If the men are dog lovers, then this would be good. You can always change the poem to read, "Thinking of you". It is sunlight that came from the window on our dog, Buddy, our late dog.
