Sorry the loss of your loved one. It is comforting to know her troubles are over. Ecclesiates 9:5 reads "The dead are conscience of nothing". Soon she will see a new world because John 5:28 states "The hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear the voice of Jesus and come out"

I wish to send my deepest condolences to the family of Mrs. Flerlage. The loss of a loved one is very difficult to cope with. The scriptures offers a very comforting hope at Isaiah 26:19. I hope it brings comfort to you as it has to me over the years.
