Norma, you and your family are in my thoughts and prayers that the peace of God that passes all understanding will be yours during this time.
I Thess 4:13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him
