Zena, so sorry for your loss. I remember when we were in 6th grade...we had a situation...you told your mom while she was watching The Flintstone's and all was good for you ;)...you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Our heartfelt condolences to the family. When someone special falls asleep in death, it is very hard to let go of the fact that they are no longer with us. We will miss holding them in our arms again and hear their laughter or see their smiles again. Our God, Jehovah offers a future hope for our loved ones, which will help ease our feelings of loss today. May the coming days bring you comfort and peace (Isaiah 26:19).
