Hope you will be comforted in knowing that Cynthia has the prospect of being resurrected, healthy (in the flesh), to Paradise Earth just as Jehovah God has promised.

I am so sorry for the loss of your dear loved one. There is a very comforting scripture found at Isaiah 25:8. It says that soon Jehovah will swallow up death forever and that he will wipe away all of the tears. So we can look forward to a time when death will be done away with forever. I hope that this scripture can bring some comfort during this time.
