accept my heartfelt? Tue Jan 15, 2008 9:37 am  accept my heartfelt?
 

Hi All,

What would I have said when my (American) colleague's father died.

1. Please accept my condolences
2. Please accept my heartfelt
3. Please accept my sympathy

What's the most common from the above?

Should I append: in your bereavement?

Hi,

'Condolence' would usually be in the plural.
