Do I need to write a thank you card for a sympathy card?

Dear Polite One,

Is a thank you card obligatory when one has received a sympathy card?

Thank you,

Wondering

Dear Wondering,

I am sincerely sorry for your loss.  

The bereaved is only expected to write thank-you notes for flowers, special favors, and condolence letters, within a month. However, most realize that this is a time for grieving.  Take your time if you need to.

Sincerely,

The Polite One
