    Psalm 31:24 Be strong and take heart, all you who hope in the Lord. For God will never forsake you during this time of sorrow. So weep if you must, and let your eyes overflow with tears. Just remember, God is just a whisper away. Let him be your comfort during this difficult time and he will restore your spirit through your hope in our Lord and savior Jesus Christ. May his Peace be upon you for now and forevermore! Elder Drummond

    To my Family I loved aunt edith. From the moment I met her at the gas station I thought she was mean but I the more I went in their I think I wore her down because she started saying hey baby when I spoke and then when I found out she was family it had been a joy loving and hugging on her. I wish it wouldn't hadn't taken me so long to meet my family but glad to have known her! SIHP!

    My condolences to the family. May JEHOVAH GOD (Psalms 83:18) the "God of all comfort" (2nd Corinthians 1:3 and 4), give you the comfort you need now and afterwards.

    To the family and friends: We're so sorry to hear you are mourning the recent loss of your loved one.  May you find strength  and comfort from the words of Psalms 46:1 which reads: "God is our refuge and strength, A help that is readily found in times of distress." Our loving God is there for us if we ask for his help (1 John 5:14). He didn't intend for us to grow old and die.  He thus has made the SURE promise of a resurrection RIGHT HERE ON EARTH when it is restored to a beautiful paradise (Psalms 37:9-11, 29; Acts 24:15; Isaiah 55;11). Can you see yourself welcoming back to life your loved ones? What a joy it will bring all of us.  You can go online to JW.ORG and find out more about this resurrection.
