I reckon there's a gap in the market for humourous sympathy cards. I've come up with a couple of ideas;
Like on the front it reads "Sorry to hear you've lost a loved one" and inside it says "Have you tried looking down the back of the sofa?!"
Because things get lost down the back of the sofa. It's funny because it's true. It could also come with a badge that features a crying face or a coffin or something and the words "Grieving Today" or "Don't mind me I'm mourning!".
What do you reckon? I might invest a couple of grand running up a few thousand and see how they sell...

I like it. 
I made my own Christmas cards this year. At least I took the photo and someone printed fifty of them off, stuck them on white cards with red envelopes and only charged me a tenner!

You could expand it to include people who have died in tragic accidents: 'Sorry to hear about the loss of your loved one, but hey, at least the mortgage is paid.'

Or are you doing one of them joke things.
No they really do.
