Dear {sibling},
I wanted to thank you in writing for how you've handled virtually everything in relation to our {deceased relative}. I am so, so appreciative for all you've done and all that you continue to do.
I know that amid the grief and stress, I haven't always sounded patient or grateful. I think that part of that comes from my guilt due to {living far away/one-time estrangement/lack of funds/etc.}. I hope that you can forgive any unkind words I've said and any actions I've left undone.
I know you that have {responsibility} well in hand. I was wondering if you might need help with {project} or {responsibility}?
You are truly a wonderful {sister/brother}, and I'm looking forward to seeing you in person on {date} for {funeral/estate planning/reminiscing}.
Love,
