  3. As a volunteer at Carepartners I am always saddened when someone dies. However, knowing what God promises in His word about the ressurrection to this earth gives me comfort. His original purposes for mankind was for them to live Forever on a paradise earth. God never lies! So we will see her again, on a Paradise earth! Revelation 21:3,4.

  5. I am deeply sorry for your loss. My dearest condolences to the family. Sometimes gentle words can do so much to soften the intense sadness when a dear loved one dies. God’s word acknowledges that our heart can be ‘broken and crushed.’ (Ps. 51:17). But even in severe situations, God can bring relief to a stricken heart if we pray to him in full faith and observe his commandments. May the God of comfort soothe your families aching hearts as the days progress.

  6. Shannon, Fred, Patsy and family, Revelation 21:4 is a beautiful promise of things to come. ‘ And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.’ I know Susan would want you to look forward for this time to come that we shall all be together again soon. May you find peace from Our Lord Jesus Christ and comfort that only God can possible give during this time. Praying for you all! Love you all!
