Best Answer

Logically, a sympathy card is addressed to the survivors of the immediate family, collectively.

e.g. The Smith Family

1234 Main St.

Anywhere, USA

In a situation where there is only the surviving spouse, a sympathy card should be addressed as follows :

Mr. John Smith

1234 Main St.

or

Mrs. John Smith

1234 Main St.

NB. When the wife is the sole Survivor, you do not use her first name in the address, but rather, her husband's first name
