Hi Shelia,
Peter and I are very sorry for your loss. We realize that he is now resting in a deep sleep not feeling any pain. The Bible says at Ecclesiates 9:5,10 that the dead is conscious of nothing at all. So when Jesus calls he will be resurrected back to life in the very near future. Matthew 5:28,29. We love you and will be there for you in your time of grief.

In My Father's house there are many dwelling places...If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back again and take you to Myself, so that where I am you also may be...Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you...;Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid
