I am so sorry for your loss. There is a very comforting scripture at Isaiah 25:8. It says that soon Jehovah will swallow up death forever and that he will wipe away all of the tears. So we can all look forward to a time when death will be done away with. I hope that this scripture can bring some comfort during this time.

My sincere condolences to the family for your loss. Death is truly a painful enemy that was never a part of God's original purpose for the human family. Romans 5:12. Soon, by means of his son Christ Jesus and the heavenly kingdom government, all causes of human suffering will be eliminated and death will be no more. Revelation 21:3-5. Jesus will awaken those now sleeping in death. John 11:11-14 , 39-44. John 5:28,29. May you be comforted in the hope of seeing your dear loved one again in paradise on earth. Psalms 37:29. Luke 23:43. You can learn more about the marvelous resurrection hope and Jehovah's purpose for mankind and the earth @jw.org. Sincerely, CPeoples

The Bible says that “there are new heavens and a new earth that we are awaiting according to his promise.” (2 Peter 3:13) By means of his Kingdom, God will restore our earth to the condition he intended for it, “and death will be no more.” (Revelation 21:3, 4) Is that speaking of life in heaven or on earth? For something to “be no more,” it had to be there in the first place. But death has never existed in heaven. Logically, then, that verse refers to what will happen on earth, where we were meant to live and where we yearn to be with our loved ones. The Bible also reveals that the dead will be brought back to life and reunited with their loved ones.—John 5:28, 29. “As for the heavens, they belong to God, but the earth he has given to the sons of men.”—Psalm 115:16. The term “new earth” is not a literal new planet; rather, it is a symbolic term referring to a society of people living on the earth who receive God’s approval.—Psalm 66:4. I hope this will bring you and the family comfort. For more here's comfort my text 919-561-8472 and my email wanttohelponesthataresad@gmail.com

I so sorry for your loss. I hope you find comfort in Psalm 34:18. 'God is close to the broken-hearted and saves those crushed in spirit. 'Make God your comfort. He 'heals the broken-hearted.' Psalm 147:3 and provides 'refuge and strength in times of distress.' Psalm 46:1
