I love you Son, you will be with me forever…Love, Dad
Rick and family, I am so sorry for your loss. My prayers and thoughts are with you in these hard times. Pat
So sorry for your loss. You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.
Please accept my condolences. May you find comfort in the fond memories of your loved one. The Bible also offers words of comfort during times of bereavement. It is comforting to know the Bible speaks of a time when “death will be no more” at Rev 21:3, 4. During your time of bereavement you can find comfort in reading these verses in the Bible.
My deepest sorrow to the family for a life that ended too soon, may your hearts find comfort in knowing that Jehovah God and his son, Jesus Christ loves us –John chapter 3 verse 16; Psalms chapter 83 verse 18. Jesus’ death actually opens to us the opportunity for eternal life on a paradise earth. When Jesus walked the earth he performed many miracles which included resurrecting loved ones back to life here on earth. One day soon, we will leap for joy when Jesus resurrects our dear loved ones with the prospect of eternal life on a paradise earth. As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life’s routine, may these promises enlighten your heart and faith always – John chapter 11 verses 43, 44; John chapter 5 verses 28, 29; Psalms chapter 37 verse 29.
To the Jacquot Family:
I am so sorry for your loss. As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life’s routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends. Please accept my sincere condolences for your loss. Please find comfort in the following Bible verse, John 11: 11 where Jesus said: “… Lazarus our friend has gone to rest, but I am journeying there to awaken him from sleep.” Please also find comfort in knowing that our Almighty Heavenly Father holds out the hope of the resurrection and the ability to see our loved ones again.
