Dear Hester Family, I am so sorry to hear about your loss of Kathleen. She sounds like she was a beautiful woman in and out. During hard times like these, my family finds comfort in the scriptures, particularly Rev. 21:3,4: 3 With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. 4 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.” No matter how strong our faith, the death of a loved one hurts deeply. I hope these words help a bit to ease the pain. Also, here is a link to a bible based article, that may help during this time: https://www.jw.org/en/publications/magazines/watchtower-no3-2016-may/when-a-loved-one-dies/ With love, Grace D.
