My grandfather was niftar very recently Crying or Very sad
there was a Jewish (not religious) nurse in the hospital who took care of him the last couple days and also cleaned him up etc before the chevra kadisha took over. Any suggestions of what would be a nice/appropriate gift? Thanks!

you can take them a tray of cookies as a thank you or some chocolate arrangement. I think it is a nice idea they will realize that it was appreciated.

It’s difficult to get a gift when you don’t know the man personally. A basket with amazing ‘Jewish’ delicious food should warm his heart, let him know you’re not ‘cheap’ and may have him begging for more!

Yup my kids and I did that also for the nurses that took care of my mom in rehab.. Considering they are always on the run, cookies are like a yummy snack.
