To the Family: Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. I have often found comfort from reflecting on what is written in God’s word. It says that soon God will do away with pain, suffering, and death. God’s word also states that soon after that, there will be a resurrection. At this time, we have the hope of seeing our loved ones again. This thought has brought great comfort to my family and I sincerely hope this note will bring a measure of comfort and hope to your family.
