How should a condolence money (Pak Kam) envelope be written?

Use a plain white envelope. On the front, write an appropriate heading (e.g., “Condolence Gift”). On the back lower-left corner, write your name and a short sympathy note such as “With Deepest Sympathy”. Special envelopes are commonly available at funeral parlours.

Do you offer same-day delivery to funeral parlours or halls? What details are needed?

Yes, same-day delivery is available (order as early as possible). Please provide the funeral parlour or hall name, room number, vigil date/time, the deceased’s name, and an on-site contact number. Tell us if specific religious wording or formats are required for the card.

Which colours and flowers are appropriate or to be avoided?

Prefer neutral and serene tones (white, green, soft pastels). Suitable flowers include white lilies, chrysanthemums, gladiolus, bird of paradise, and forget-me-nots. Avoid celebratory reds or designs that resemble festive arrangements.

Q: What are the etiquette rules for writing a condolence card message?

Keep the tone respectful and dignified. A typical structure includes: 1) the recipient (the deceased’s full name and honorifics), 2) a brief eulogy or sympathy phrase, and 3) the sender’s name and relationship. For Christian/Catholic services, concise faith-based messages such as “Rest in Peace”, “In God’s Care”, or “Forever in Our Hearts” are appropriate.

Q: Is there a standard amount for condolence money (Pak Kam)?

There is no fixed amount—the thought matters most. Traditionally, amounts are odd numbers (e.g., HK$501) to symbolise that sorrow should not come in pairs, and the contribution helps the family with funeral expenses.
