Dear Edney family, At this most difficult time please accept my condolence and deep regrets for your loss for this enemy death is our worse enemy and always brings much grief and pain as I felt also when it took my entire family and I’d like to share what helped me at that time. I found help in what I read in Jehovah Gods word the Bible at John5:28,29 for there it tells us we’ll see our love ones again when Jesus brings them back here on earth. Also at Isaiah25:8 we’ re told that this enemy death will be swallowed up forever. From these scriptures and others I’m now able to cope with my loss and get through each day because now I know I’ll see my family again. I truly hope this has helped you also in some way for this is my purpose in sharing this with you at this difficult time when hope and comfort is needed and please feel free to let me know at gloriamosley@hotmail.com and please know that I do share your grief and hope to hear from you. Sincerely, GM
