My sincere condolences to the family and friends. Certainly Almighty God did not intend for us to experience the loss of our loved ones. Please find comfort from his wonderful promise found at Isaiah 25:8, which says, He will swallow up death forever, And the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will wipe away the tears from all faces.
