I am very sorry to hear about the death of our beloved sister. Death is never easy, in fact, at 1 Corinthians 15:26 death is described as our "enemy." Yet the bible does offer hope at Revelation 21:4, 'he will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more. The former things have passed away.' We all look forward to seeing Elminnie happy and healthy again.
