  1. Remembering when we watched Battle Star Galactica for 3 weeks straight. I lost my job and you went blind. Good times.

  2. We are so sorry for your loss. May the God of all comfort, continue to be with you and your family during this difficult time. We all look forward to a time, when death will be no more-Rev 21:4. Our prayers are with you and your family during this difficult time.

  3. I am so sorry to have read of your loss. Please accept my sincere condolences. The Bible is a great source of encouragement at times like this. Something that I have personally found to be of great comfort is what the Bible says at John 5:28, 29 ( 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, those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment.) As well as Revelation 21:3,4 (With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore.) These verses show us that soon God is going to bring about a resurrection of our loved ones as well as do away with all causes we have for suffering including sickness and death. Knowing this has always comforted me and it is my sincere hope that these thoughts comfort your family as well. Again I am so sorry for your loss and May Jehovah God bring you comfort during these difficult times.
