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 .
So sorry for your loss.Family is in my prayers.
Not only would you be hard pressed to find a man as righteous and pure and kind-hearted as Robert Richards, you would be hard pressed to find anyone who knew him that would deny this fact. The world is a little bit more dismal because of his passing, but I am positive that Heaven just became an even greater place because of his presence. I know that God will reunite him with his beloved wife and his family, friends, and pets that have preceded him. I consider myself blessed to have known him and to be a part of his family. He is deeply loved and will be sorely missed.
Mr. Richards was a great man and will be missed by many. Thoughts and prayers go out to the family.
