Yes, it is a simple acknowledgment of your sympathy. It means so much to receive these cards, at the funeral, people can be so upset/overwhelmed by the whole thing that it is likely that they don't even notice who attends (I can't remember the many who came to both my parents funerals).

for the duration of any such hard time, someone needs and appreciates each and each and every of the help they receive. you've already been a sturdy pal for attending the wake and the funeral, even though it would want to nonetheless preferably be tremendous to deliver a card besides.

You could send a sympathy card , usually you send one before the Funeral just to let them know that you care and that you are thinking of them

It's not exactly necessary because if you go to the funeral, that means to them that you care about the dead person, it's okay if you want to, it wouldn't do any harm, but if you don't that's okay too.

It's nice to do both, but not necessarily, particularly if you were not close.
