Can I use

Always yours,

as a complimentary closing?

or is it Yours Always,

I haven't found any reference to this on the internet.


Thank you

You can close a letter in anyway you choose.

The more common closing with “sincerely” can be written either as “Yours sincerely”, or “Sincerely yours”.

Therefore, I think you can close either way: “Yours always”, or “Always yours”.

Hi guys,

“Yours always”, or “Always yours”.

I think that wording for ending a letter is probably very culturally dependent. As a man in my culture, I would only use such wording if I were writing to the woman I loved.
