Thank you messages
A thank-you note only needs two things: what they did and what it meant. These lines give you the second part.

Writing your own
- Name the thing: the gift, the lift, the hour of their time. A specific thank-you is the whole point.
- Say what it changed for you, even if it is small: “I used it the same night.”
- Send it late rather than not at all. Nobody minds a late thank-you.
