The woman that I used to babysit for about 13 years ago called to let me know that her mother-in-law passed away. The kids I used to babysit are pretty much grown up now and I haven't seen them in ages. I still am in occasional contact with their mother (the one that called). I don't know the proper etiquette for handling this situation. Ideally, I'd like to just send a gift basket to their house but they are expensive and we are on a tight budget. The fact that she called made me feel obligated for something. Is sending JUST a condolence card too tacky? I am unable to attend the wake so I cannot just ignore the situation. PLEASE ADVISE!

a condolence card will do just fine....with a note from you expressing your heartfelt condolence.....you don't have to do more then that......one of my brothers just passed away.....we got cards from people he used to know from back in the day when he was in high school and college.....it was a nice of them to do that and that they remembered him
