I sincerely offer my condolence: Words seem insufficient at this time. Although nobody denies the certainty of death, we all need comfort in the reality of it. May you find real comfort and relief, and as a result, begin to recover gradually from the pain. May the love from those around you help you through the days ahead.

My deepest condolences to the family. Losing a loved one is painful but our God promise the we will see them again. May the words in Job 34: 14, 15 give you comfort in this sorrow moment.
