1. Consider sending a bouquet of flowers, chocolates, or something that can be automatically sent over the internet to brighten their spirits.
2. Make a homemade card and/or gift. If you visit them in person, this could be a basket like a May basket. You might research oragami flowers or animals - this might really make the person laugh and know you are thinking of them.
