Please accept our deepest condolences for your family’s loss.
Death is the last mile in our walk of ltife. But we are never ready for it to come to our loved ones. It is with great pain that we give up our loved ones. The Bible helps us with our grief. Jesus gave way to tears over the death of his friend Lazarous. (John 1135) Jehovah promised us that he will put a end to all sickness, & death will be no more. (Rev. 213,4) Jehovah God shows his love for us throu the ramson sacrifice of his beloved son Jeaus Christ. Isn’t it a wonderful comfort to know that we will see our loved ones again.
