Jann and family…
I’m so sorry about the loss of your sister. I hope you are able to find comfort in knowing that she is in Heaven and no longer in pain. Hope you are doing well!

From all the Andersen family, Mike, Kathy, Marty, Merle and Cheryl, God Bless.
Sorry to hear of the loss of your Mother. I know exactly how you feel as I lost my Mother to cancer too. I will pray for your comfort and strength for now and in the future. Take Care.
I’d like to express my sincerest condolences. There are no words that I can say that can adequately comfort one in times such as these. However, Gods word the bible gives us comfort and hope. In Revelation 21:4 Jehovah God promises to get rid of all death, suffering, mourning, and he will wipe all tears from our eyes. Jehovah promises to bring back our loved ones in the resurrection. Jesus said that “all those in the memorial tombs will hear his [Jesus’] voice and come out.” (John 5:28, 29 NWT) May these scriptures comfort you at this hard time.
