A reader asks Dear Abby if it is appropriate to inquire whether her neighbor got the fruit basket she sent in condolences for her brother's death.
You were thoughtful to send food. But give your neighbor a few weeks before asking that question. She may be grieving and not yet organized enough to begin thanking people for their thoughtfulness. If the eventual answer is no, contact the VENDOR and ask for a refund.
