Sympathy card 1

We said farewell to two lovely people we knew this last week. I always feel uncomfortable making sympathy cards, like I am not reflecting enough the sadness of the situation or the respect I feel for the person or the family... Anyhow, this was one of the cards I made. Feedback welcome.
Challenges:
Polka Doodles - Vintage/retro
Die Cut Dreams - Sympathy
