Im so sorry for your loss, please accept my heartfelt condolences. It is my hope that you may find some comfort in this Bible verse found at Psalms 94:19 which says when anxieties overwhelmed me, you (God) comforted and soothed me. When we pray to God for help He can give us the strength to endure.
