    Im so sorry for your loss, i hope your family can find comfort in knowing God sees your pain and promises to be there to comfort you. “Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted;He saves those who are crushed in spirit.”-psalm 34:18
    And he longs for the day when he will resurrect those who have fallen asleep in death. “Do not be amazed at this for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out…”-john 5:28,29
