Please accept my sincere condolences. Something that I personally founded is in the Bible at John5:28,29 and Revelation 21:4.
These verses tell us that soon God is going to bring about a resurrection of our dear loved ones as well as do away with all causes we have for suffering, including sickness and death.
Knowing this has always comforted me and it is my hope that these thoughts will comfort your family also
