Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
I would like to express my condolences to the family for your loss. Even though I didn’t personally know Helen, I know that she will be greatly missed! I know that losing a family member causes much sorrow, but the bible certainly provides us with true comfort!-2 Cor. 13-5. The Almighty God Jehovah-Ps. 8318 lets us know that one day the great enemy death will be brought to nothing,-1 Cor. 1526. How wonderful it will be not to read another obituary, or to hear the words I lost someone in death, because death will be done away with-Rev. 214, 5. We don’t have to worry about this promise coming true, because Jehovah doesn’t lie-Titus 12. How wonderful it will be to see our dead loved ones again! Because of Jehovah sending his son Jesus Christ to die for us, this has opened the opportunity for a resurrection of the dead. Remember the account of Jesus raising his friend Lazarus from the dead. Jesus told Lazarus sister Martha I am the resurrection and the life. He that exercises faith in me, even though he dies, will come to life,-John 1123-25. That is what exactly happened! After praying to his father Jehovah for power to resurrect Lazarus, Jesus cried out with his voice for Lazarus to come out, and that is what he did!-John 1141-44. Yes the Resurrection Hope is wonderful to think about! -John 528, 29. May your family have peace and be comforted! Please feel free to email me, if you have any questions [emailprotected]
Gordan and sons, it has been a long time since we have seen each other. You have my deepest condolences over Helen’s passing. She was a sweet and wonderful person. Helen was a real friend to me. I know that she is with her Lord and Savior. May God give each of you the peace and comfort that only He can.

The Bible promises that those who have died will be resurrected to a paradise earth. (John 528,29) Communicate your feeling, Kind words will cheer you up. (Prov. 1225) Keeping your feeling bottled up inside may make it difficult for you to deal with your grief. On the other hand, discussing your feelings with someone you trust will open the way for you to receive kind words of encouragement when you need it most. God will wipe out every tear from their eyes, & death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. (Rev. 214) Talk to God. Likely, you will feel much better after you pour out your heart to Jehovah God in prayer. (Ps. 628) This is not simply a feel-good therapy. In prayer, you are appealing to the God of all comfort, who comfort us in all our tribulation. (2 Cor. 13,4) By these following scriptures. Ps. 3418; Ps. 10217; Ps. 1473; Isaiah 258. It is my hope that some of these will help you, as they did for me. giving, hope to see our loved ones once again
