Kelsey, accept and transmit to the rest of the family our sincere condolences. May you find some comfort in the words of Psalms 34:18 which reads: ' Jehovah is close to the brokenhearted; He saves those who are crushed in spirit ' Yes, we can ask for help and rely on God. He also has made the sure promise of a resurrection right here on earth when it is restored to a beautiful paradise. (Acts 24:15; Psalms 37:9-11, 29). Be confident that this is SURE to happen because Isaiah 55:11 ensures us of this. Find out more online at JW.ORG

Well Son, today is the end of your journey among us. I have loved you dearly and physically for 21 years and I will continue to love you and cherish our memories dearly and spiritually. Take your place with the Lord and cover your family and friends with your abundance of joy and laughter and loving heart. For always, My Boy, My Boy!!!

Buswanita Richardson (mommie)

To the family, My condolences to the loss of your love one. I know it is hard to deal with this grief-stricken pain. But God, whose name is Jehovah, stated in his word the Bible that “death will be no more”. (Psalms 83:18, 1 Timothy 3:16, Revelation 21:4). Also, his son, Jesus Christ, assured us at John 5:28,29: “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, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment”. So, rest assured, you will be able to see your love one again. I’ve attached a link to one of our tracts from our website, jw.org. The tract asks this question, “Can the Dead Really Live Again?” It has wonderful scriptural encouragement that will help from God’s word. Again, my sincerest condolences, J. Bryant https://www.jw.org/finder?wtlocale=E&pub=t-35&srcid=share

Sending my condolences and love to the family

J'Quita Owens

My deepest condolences go out to your family during this difficult time. I know the pain of losing loved ones and it’s only natural to wonder why this happens, but I was comforted in knowing that God will soon bring death, sickness, pain and suffering to an end (Rev 21:4) and even more comforting is that he plans to bring our dead loved ones back to life one day soon (John 5:28,29) I hope these thoughts help you to cope until that time comes.

Friend, i can’t say “i know how you feel”! Because i have not experienced loosing a child. But i know the pain is great. So i will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. With hopes that it will not get better... but just a little easier! This is sooo hard to believe. When i met you... i met all 5 of the kids. Nunny was about 6 or 7 years old! Man... that’s a long time. And i don’t care where he was or what he was doing... whenever i saw him, he was always respectable! With his sligh grin...”Hey Miss Rekiya”!! #RIP #GoneToSoon #LuvYa 😘

Rekiya

My heart goes out to you my dear friend, no mother should ever have to bury their baby. You and your family are in my continued thoughts prayers.
