Sympathy Blankets

We receive a lot of sympathy blankets from the many friends of my late father's god son.

Sympathy Blankets carry condolence messages on them. They are usually sent as a funeral gift to a person who had just lost his/her kins. After the funeral rites, the messages on the Sympathy Blankets are removed, and can be used as blankets.

While wreaths may look presentable as a funeral gift, they are flowers and will whither over time. For the average funeral rite, it takes 5 days for prayers. During this 5 days, some flowers might whither. After the funeral rites, wreaths are thrown away, together with their stands. Therefore, many people thought that sympathy blankets are more lasting. After the funeral, Sympathy Blankets are kept and used as blankets for the family members and there will be no wastage. It is environmental friendly, so to speak using the popular language.

Also Sympathy Blankets are tied to the wall and can be seen from a distance away. Hence, many people consider sympathy Blankets make generous gifts.
