Sorry for your loss
My sincere condolences to family and friends. May you find comfort in your loving memories, and in God’s promise to soon “swallow up death forever” and “wipe away the tears from all faces”. (Isaiah 25:8) Revelation 21:4 “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.” For more on the hope from the Bible please visit www.jw.org.
