If you just found out your daughter’s childhood best friend died a year ago, and no one tried to contact us, would you still send a sympathy card to the family, even though it’s a year later. She died of a freak accident, and was only 20 years old.
Thanks.

Yes, I would. No statute of limitations on something like this. Just explain how you only found out recently.
How very sad for your daughter, and of course the friend’d family!
Finding out after the fact is hard, no matter how long a period of time.
I agree with Lu, its never too late to share your feelings and condolences with someone who has lost a loved one and besides your daughter lost her best friend so everyone has felt a sense of loss. My blessings to you all.
Something similar happened to us a couple of years ago. It’s as if the person just died. I think a note is always appropiate, as the situation hasn’t changed. Those that lost a loved one will always miss them. It’s nice to know that others remember them and are thinking of you.
Blessings,

Thank you all for your thoughts. I didn’t want to upset the family more all over again, but what you have all said seems to mean so much, not only to my daughter and myself, but to her family too.
Thank you all.

I agree with everyone that it is never too late. I’m sure it will bring a smile to their hearts.
I would send a card and explain - I’m sure they would be comforted by this
