May your memories of the wonderful times you shared with your loved one comfort you and your family, today and always.
We would like to offer our condolences and we hope you can find comfort in the words of Hosea 13 : 14 which says, "From the power of the Grave I will redeem them; from death I will recover them. Where are your stings, O Death? Where is your destructiveness, O Grave? Compassion will be concealed from my eyes."
Almighty God has tolerate man's last enemy, but when we experience the fulfillment of His promise to remove death there will be no compassion nor tolerance for it. (1 Corinthians 15 : 26 )
