To The Family, Please accept my deepest condolence for the loss of your dear love one. I would like to share some words of comfort from God’s word the Bible. John 5:28,29 and Acts 24:15 assures us that those who have fallen asleep in death have the wonderful hope to live again. Also take comfort in Revelation 21:3,4, where at that time SICKNESS,PAIN,DEATH.MOURNING,and OUTCRY will be things of the past,GONE FOREVER. Please take comfort in these encouraging promises.
