I don't think that would be weird at all. Just tell her in the card you haven't met her yet but heard about her loss from the other neighbors and wanted to do something for her.
I think the food thing is a good idea. Wait a week or two till all the initial outpouring and food bringing is over and she's sorta left to fend for herself, then make her a meal. Or make a big batch of something and freeze it up into some smaller meals that she can thaw in days to come, when she doesn't feel like cooking. Running an errand for her or going to the market might be good, too.
You'll make a friend for sure. Good neighbors can be a godsend in so many ways, esp with you staying there longterm and raising your kids there.
