To the family of Mrs Brown,
I would like to express how sorry to hear of your loss. I recently moved back to Newberry after the loss of my father. The pain of losing a loved one is a pain that seemingly never goes away. However, the pain can lessen when we think of what God has promised to do for us.

At 2 Cor 1:3,4 the Bible states: "Blessed be God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God."

What comfort does he provide us? First of all, at 1 Cor 15:26 it says: "The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death." So God views death as an enemy and will eventually remove death.

Secondly, Jesus gave us hope when at John 11:25 he said: "I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:" So there is a chance to see our loved ones again under better conditions.

This comfort from the Bible has helped me in dealing with the loss of my father and I hope it will help your family to some degree with your loss.

I would like to extend my deepest heartfelt sympathy to all of you. I remember her being such a sweet sweet person. I had not seen her in such a long time. I always asked about her. I can't forget how nice she was to me while I was growing up in Pomaria when we were neighbors. . She and all of you will be forever be in my heart. With much love always.
