My condolences to the Genung family. My thoughts are with the family. I know how it feels to lose someone dearly to cancer. I lost my grandmother to colon cancer. But I would like to share with you all the hope that I have in seeing our dear loved ones again at John 5:28, 29. I sincerely hope this scripture brings comfort during this distressing time.
