To the family and friends, I offer my deepest sympathy, and also a word of encouragement from the Bible. God has promised that the dead who are in his memory will be resurrected to life in a righteous new world. The promised future includes perfect health and everlasting life for obedient humans. The Bible says: " The righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it." Psalms 37:29. May you find comfort from this scripture.  For more information please visit JW.ORG.

May the God of all comfort and tender mercies be with the family and friends at this time (2 Corinthians 1:3).

God bless a true friend.
