I loss a young brother tragically at age 13; it was very painful; however, I got peace in knowing that my brother accepted the Lord as his savior two weeks before his death. We all are here temporarily, if we have a relationship with the Lord, we will all be joined in the end. Therefore, say your earthly goodbyes, until that day come that you will say your heavenly "hello" to all your love ones around God's Throne. You have my deepest and sincere sympathy.
