I so look forward to the resurrection when I will see your Dad and Mom. May Jehovah comfort you in this time of sorrow and may you look forward to his wonderful promise of the resurrection .
I was in the congregation with your mother and father for a few years and experienced the great love they always displayed for all their brothers and sisters...what wonderful memories.
My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of sorrow and I look forward to the time when we will see them again, alive and well.
Love,
