    Please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of your loved one. This is one of the most difficult things we must face in life. I have found great comfort in Jesus words found at John 5:28,29 “those in memorial tomb will come out”. He promises that we will be able to see our loved ones again. What a wonderful hope! We anxiously await the day when we will no longer lose those we love. May these bible thoughts bring you comfort at this most difficult time.
