My heart goes out to your family. I know the overwhelming sadness of losing one’s mother. What help me during that very difficult time were the promises that I found in God's Word. They are truly comforting and I pray that they will bring you the same comfort as it did me. Knowing that our Heavenly Father Jehovah God is going to reunite us with our dead loved ones in the Resurrection to a world where there is no longer any sickness or dying gives us strength and helps us to cope with our grief. ~ Romans 15:4; John 5:28, 29; Revelations 21:3, 4; Isaiah 33:24; 2 Peter 3:13

Carolyn,
So sorry to hear of your loss. So much of what I saw in you is written in your mom’s obituary. You like her, always had time for others and are a loving and caring person. She will live on through you till you see her again. Such a hope and comfort we have in Jesus Christ.

I send my deepest sympathy to the entire Family. Always remember the special moments that you spent with. Please find comfort in what the Bible says about the opportunity of seeing your love one again under the very best of conditions right here on the earth: 'Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out." (John 5:26, 28, 29)
