As Memory Foam moves forward and I form ideas for Oasis including words and phrases that I could build on Oasis frames (see previous post DAD) I’ve been researching the types of messages most commonly written, often by the flower arranger on behalf of a relative / friend, on the sympathy cards attached to the flower arrangements:

I am sorry for your loss.

Fond memories, from your friend

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

We are thinking of you.

We are thinking of you during this difficult time.

With deepest sympathy,

My sincere sympathy,

Our warmest condolences,

Dearest (name of deceased) may you rest in peace,

Our hearts are filled with sorrow,

With heartfelt condolences,

Please accept my condolences,

You are in my thoughts.

We are deeply sorry to hear about the death of “name of deceased”.

Remember that we love and care about you.

With loving memories of “name of deceased”,

Sent with love and remembrance,

Our hearts go out to you in your time of sorrow.

“Name of Deceased” will remain in our hearts forever.

We pray the love of God enfolds you during your journey through grief.

Please accept our most heartfelt sympathies for your loss.

Our thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.

With love and hugs,

We will miss “name of deceased”.

Remembering you and “name of deceased” in our minds and in our hearts.

With thoughts of peace and courage for you,

We send you thoughts of peace and courage.

May your heart and soul find peace and comfort.

Missed more than words can say, but in our hearts for ever.

No more tomorrows to share, but memories will always be there.

Peace, Prayers and Blessings,

I’m now considering wether the OASIS word frames alone are enough or if I might add a message card too.

DAD
http://littleonion.posterous.com/memory-foam-dad

Oasis is the foam made specifically for flower arranging. It’s used extensively in the making of funeral flower arrangements.

Florists construct frames of Oasis to spell out the name of a dead relative or friend from simple names to golf clubs, cars, fish – anything that the family feels represents the memory of their loved one maybe through a representation of their favourite hobby or pastime.

Oasis when used this way is literally a memory foam.

Here is DAD. An OASIS frame without the flowers.
