Our family wanted to express their condolences in this your time of sorrow. We found this verse encouraging during our time of loss. "Praised be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our trials so that we may be able to comfort others in any sort of trial with the comfort that we receive from God." 2 Corinthians 1:3,4. Jesus referred to himself to as "the resurrection and the life" at John 11:25. You are in our thoughts as well. JR
I send my deepest sympathy to the entire Ingram Family. Always remember the wonderful times that you spent with Edith. Please find comfort in what the Bible says about the opportunity of seeing Edith again under the very best of conditions right here on the earth: “He will swallow up death forever.” (Isaiah 25:8) For more comfort please go to https://www.jw.org/en/video-why-study-the-bible/ and then search for "When Someone You Love Dies" Brochure.
