I’m so very sorry for your loss. But may the words of Jesus Christ be able to warm your hearts up a bit with the promises he has made in John 5:28,29 about a time when he will resurrect him back to this earth to be have the ability to live forever on a paradise earth, as the Bible says in Psalm 37:29 which says: The righteous will possess the earth and they will live forever on it. So may these words bring a real sense of comfort for the future when all of you will be able to embrace him once again and to hold and cherish him forever and so to find the peace that surpasses all understanding go to JW.org to find it and may Gods spirit rest upon you as you grieve for him at this time.
Alice I am sorry for your loss. My prayers are with you.
Alice and Tommy,
Wishing you peace and prayers following “Umpy’s” passing. It’s so difficult to have lost both parents- we have become orphans in our sixties.
Funny story: Bill took Connor with him to Umpy’s one day. Your dad showed Connor how he used a launching device in his junk yard – they broke a window. Connor was so impressed that when Bill and Umpy wandered off- he launched a few more – right through the window of and antique truck.
Prayers,
Marsha and Bill Fitzgerald
