expressions - Another way to say "Condolence"

I'm looking for words/phrases that can substitute the use of word "condolence" during a funeral. I'm searching for another alternative to avoid repetition of such expression in the grieving party, in which I find redundant and annoying.



According to M-W,




Condolence- sympathy with another in sorrow; an expression of sympathy;
synonym of pity




If I were to use pity in sub of condolence, I find it disrespectful.



One time I heard someone say, "I am sorry for your loss", in which I deem one way to express solace to grieving individuals.
