Our heavenly father, Jehovah (Psalms 83:18) promises a resurrection of our dead loved ones (John 6:40) and he promises to do away with tears, pain, and death in the near future. (Revelation 21: 4) I will keep the Lyons family and friends of Robert 'Chocolate' in my prayers. (Job 14:13-15) says: 'If a man dies; can he live again? You will call and I will answer you.' HE WILL CALL 1. Life, like a mist, appears for just a day, Then disappears tomorrow. All that we are can quickly fade away, Replaced with tears and sorrow. If a man should die, can he live again? Hear the promise God has made: (CHORUS) He will call; The dead will answer. They shall live at his command. For he will have a longing For the work of his own hand. So have faith, and do not wonder, For our God can make us stand. And we shall live forever, As the work of his own hand. 2. Friends of our God, though they may pass away, Will never be forsaken. All those asleep who in God’s mem’ry stay, From death he will awaken. Then we’ll come to see all that life can be: Paradise eternally. (CHORUS) He will call; The dead will answer. They shall live at his command. For he will have a longing For the work of his own hand. So have faith, and do not wonder, For our God can make us stand. And we shall live forever, As the work of his own hand. (See also John 6:40; 11:11, 43; Jas. 4:14.) Jehovah invites you to throw all your burdens on him and he will sustain you in your time of grief. None of us are guaranteed tomorrow, but we are all guaranteed a resurrection. John 6: 40; 'For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who recognizes the Son and exercises faith in him should have everlasting life, and I will resurrect him on the last day'. John 5: 28; 'Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out...' John 11:25; 'Jesus said to her: 'I am t

I find myself coming to this site often to face the reality that you're really gone. Our son is still having a hard time dealing with this, but I remind him that God needed you on his team. I will continue to pray for your mother, siblings, and entire family.....especially your children. Kahdesha, CJ, Amir, Jaylen, Jazmin, Trinity, and Nyema. RIP Angel.

I am so sorry for the loss that you're feeling right now. I will miss my brother so very much. May God continue to bless you all.

I wish to express my deep condolences for your loss. I also wanted to share a comforting scripture from the bible. At Revelation 21:4 it says 'And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.' God promises to one day remove all suffering, sickness, and death. God also promises to bring back to life those who have died. (Acts 24:15) My prayers are with all those who were close to Robert. If you wish to know more about Gods promises for the future I invite you to visit JW.org.

Psalms 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Words fall short of expressing my sorrow for your loss. Someone so special can never be forgotten. When someone you love becomes a memory, the memory becomes a treasure.
