Robin Lamberth Cardin

To the family and friends of Sister Cardin:

Please accept my sincerest condolences. Though words feel small at a time like this, our loving Father, Jehovah, never leaves us without comfort. "Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; he saves those who are crushed in spirit." (Psalm 34:18) When grief feels heavy and the days seem long, that verse assures us that Jehovah draws especially near to those who are hurting.

Sister Cardin's life and faith leave an imprint that death cannot erase. We hold tightly to Jesus' words at John 5:28, 29, where he tenderly promised that "all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out." That is not poetic language—it is a guarantee from the One whom Jehovah has entrusted with resurrection power. The separation we feel now is real and painful, but it is temporary. Jehovah never views death as the final chapter for his faithful servants.

Revelation 21:3, 4 gives us a forward-looking hope that steadies the heart: "He will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more." What a personal picture that is—Jehovah himself wiping away tears. Until that day arrives, he strengthens us as he promises at Isaiah 41:10: "Do not be afraid, for I am with you... I will really help you."

May the family and all who loved Sister Cardin feel Jehovah's comfort and strength in the days ahead. The hope we share is not fragile; it is built on Jehovah's faithfulness. We look forward with confidence to the morning when sorrow gives way to reunion. Until then, may peace from "the God of all comfort" steady every heart.

With warm Christian love,
