Hi, I am sure every HR person will face a similar kind of situation during his/her career in HR. Let's equip ourselves with the right templates/draft copy on this matter. One of our office colleagues' father passed away yesterday, so I need to send an email to the office staff. I have drafted one, but I believe there is room for improvement. I request the HR fraternity to share their email templates on the subject.
Mail Draft: "Our heartfelt condolences to 'Emp Name.' We pray that the almighty gives her all the strength to overcome the irreplaceable loss of her father, Mr. xxxxxxx, who passed away last evening. May his soul rest in peace."

To add on: You could mention the nature of death. And you could also request a silent 2-minute prayer for all of them to observe. If required, you could mention if anyone is leaving from the office to her place, and if so, the time.
