Praying for your loss Mrs Genevieve and Willie. You are in our prayers.
I are truly sorry for your tremendous loss and would like to express my condolence to the entire family. I cannot imagine the great pain and sorrow you are experiencing during this very difficult time. It is my sincere hope you find comfort in knowing that Jehovah has promised to "swallow up death forever" (Isaiah 25:8), and that he will resurrect our dear loved ones who have passed away- John 5:28.
