I am very sorry for your loss . Losing a loved one in death is such a difficult thing to experience . Please be comforted by the promises in the Bible . Jesus tells us at John 5 : 28 , 29 that all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out . What a loving provision put in place by the God of all comfort so we can have the assured hope of seeing our dead loved ones live again one day . Meanwhile as I pray for that day to come I ask Jehovah God to bless your family and give each of you the strength to endure this most trying time . For more Bible promises please visit jw.org .
So sorry to hear about Lewis. Bubba and I did not know until the Central Virginian came out today. Had we know we would have both been at the funeral. We are both very fond of Lewis. He was always in touch with us since we were kids. He will be greatly missed. You and the rest of the family are in our thoughts and prayers.
