My condolences to the family. Though the sting of death is very painful, know that God (Psalms 83:13) promises to remove that sting of death forever. He also promises to resurrect our dead loved ones back to life in the near future. May this message of hope comfort all of you during this difficult times. (Isaiah 25:8; Acts 24:15).

Dear King family. I am so sorry to have read of the death of Phillip. Please accept my sincere condolences. I would like to share something that I have personally found to be comforting. It is found in the Bible at John 5:28, 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.
