I am sorry for your loss. It is always hard to lose a loved one in death. Our heavenly Father is very aware and understands the pain you feel. He will give you comfort. (Psalms 86:6,7) Your family has my deepest sympathy.

There are no words to express the loss of a loved one. May 2nd Thessalonians 3:16 give you comfort during this most difficult time. Now May the Lord of peace himself give you peace constantly in every way. May the lord be with all you.
