寒中見舞い

年賀状をありがとうございました。 昨年 義母が他界しましたので、年末年始の挨拶をご遠慮させて頂きました 。

Dear XXX, 

I am glad to receive your Christmas card.  Sorry not sending mine back.  This is a Japanese tradition that happy greetings shall not be sent out when someone in the family has passed away during the same year.  My [mother-in-law] passed away this past October.

It's very cold this winter.  Please take care of yourself.

Sincerely,
[your name]
