My deepest sympathy to the family. Losing a loved one is one of the most painful thing in this world. But rest assured that Jehovah our God sees our sorrows and deeply cares about us. (1Peter 5:7) May you find comfort in God’s word recorded in John 5:28,29 which promises a resurrection hope for all our dear loved ones.
