Sorry for your loss. The Bible says in a coming new world,life in perfect health and happiness is promised. Revelation 21:3,4.
Sorry to hear about your sister passing. I just wanted to drop you a note that I remember our time attending Shawnee school together. My sister, Miriam, who lives in Memphis sent me the notice knowing we had been classmates briefly in school.
I worked with your mom at the old Union Planters Branch at Poplar & Colonial for several years. I was also a close high school friend of your sister, Judy. I loved your Mom she was so fun to work with...she really kept us in line! Your Mom also made sure Judy celebrated her graduation from nursing school in style by helping us arrange a trip to Hawaii. May she RIP.
Please except my sincere condolences for your loss.
Our Creator God understands how you feel and he deeply cares about you, and He fully understands what you’re going through.. (Psalm 103:14; 1 Peter 5:7) Jehovah is close to those who are Heart broken, he comforts those who are grieving.—Ps. 34:18. You can trust him with your innermost feelings, Pray to Almighty God for peace and he will sustain you.
My deepest Sympathy.
