To the family and friends of Rosemary, I extend my condolence. Always remember the Bible's promise that all in the grave will be resurrected back to an earth where pain and death will be gone. (John 5:28,29; Revelation 21:4) For more information on Hope for Our Dead Loved Ones, visit jw. org. There is nothing that I can say to stop your pain, but I hope the above scriptures ease your pain and brings you comfort in the days ahead.
