I am so sorry to hear of your great loss. Recently I lost my dear mother,
and found great comfort in the Holy Bible, like at Isaiah 25 verse 8 –
“The Sovereign Lord will swallow up death forever, and wipe away
the tears from all faces.” Also at Revelation 21 verse 4, we find
God’s promise to remove both pain and death. For more comfort,
I turn to the website at: http://www.jw.org (Search: Comfort)
Sorry for your loss Bill and family, I worked with Tana years ago at Rockwell. She was a good friend. Prayers for you and the family.
