Emailing Contacts After Rejection

What do you guys say to your contacts after you get rejected from a firm that they referred you to? It is inevitably a bit of an awkward email to send, but at the same time they have helped you out and deserve to be kept in the loop. Do you usually send an email to them either way thanking them for their help?
