Karen, we are in Florida with our kids. We won’t make the funeral and I am very sorry. May God bless you and your sweet family. Love, Don and Mary Dowd
Sarah, Karen, Michael and family, we are so sorry for your loss. May your memories bring you some comfort in this time of grief. May Edward rest in peace. You all are in our thoughts and prayers. Henry & Michelle Trojacek
Sarah , Karen and Micheal, I am so sorry for your loss. I pray that our loving and kind heavenly father, Jehovah, help you through this hard time. In an ancient book of wisdom, the Holy Bible, are many verses that I found very comforting when I lost my wife and two of my children. One is in John 3:16 where we learn two things. One is that God loves us. The other is that God has made arrangements for us to gain everlasting life. In line with this, in Revelation 21:1-4 is a description of a whole new world where God will be with mankind. He says He will wipe out death, sorrow, tears and pain. In this new world you will never have to bury someone you love again. Then in John 5:28, 29 Jesus promised to resurrect all those in the tombs. Some of these will gain everlasting life. So Edward and all your dead loved ones could be back. You could have a large family reunion. None of you would ever die again.. There is much more found at jw.org. I hope this helps some. Steve
I would like to express my deepest sympathy to family and friends. May all of your good memories be greater than your sadness during this difficult time. (Isaiah 25:8)
