Ray and family our hearts go out to you during this time of sorrow. Just remember all the good times with your sister and her family. God will see you through this time. We love you and Carolyn. Sylvia and Ray long
I would like to express my deepest sympathy for the loss of your loved one. May Jehovah, the God of all comfort, help your family during this difficult time. 2 Corinthians 1 3-4 Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our trials so that we may be able to comfort others in any sort of trial with the comfort that we receive from God.
Our thoughts & prayer are with you, during this time of grief. May God provide you comfort, in your time of sorrow. One way that God can help is thou praying. Jehovah is near to all those calling upon him. (Ps. 145 18) For God loved the world so much that he gave his only begotten son, so that we might have everlasting life. (John 3 16) What a wonderful time that will be. The joy at that time will be the greatest we have ever known.
My condolences to the Edwards family for your loss. Marjorie will be missed! During this time of sorrow, meditating on Jehovah promises in his word the Bible, about the end of death(Isa. 258), and the wonderful opportunity to see our loved ones by means of a resurrection hope(Acts 2415), can bring us comfort(2 Cor. 13, 4)! Please feel free to visit our website http://www.jw.org Go to publications, then BooksBrochures and search for the Book What does the Bible Really Teach and read chapter 6 Where Are The Dead, and chapter 7 Real Hope For Your Loved Ones Who Have Died. I’m sure you, just like myself, will enjoy this comforting Bible based material. If you have questions, please e-mail me at [emailprotected] May your family be comforted!
