I agree that you can let it go. The arguments that you hadn't seen him for a while and that he is trying to segment his private life from his professional life are both quite reasonable.
You said that "I would hate for him to think that he would mention his mother's death to me and me do nothing"
My personal belief is that both sending a card and not sending a card are acceptable behaviors on your part in this case. He had brought the matter up in a session, so you did talk about it in person - and I assume that you said "Oh, I'm so sorry" - that could be considered sufficient. So I don't think that he would think badly of you if you *hadn't* sent a card.
