Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. The Bible has proven to be the best source of encouragement to cope with such a difficult time. The Bible at 2 Corinthians 1:3, 4 will truly provide comfort for your loss. Grieving families, like yourselves, need to know that Jehovah God will sustain you through intense sadness. You can approach the great “Hearer of prayer,” trusting that he will give you help. (Psalms 65:2) Jehovah God gives strength to those who are grieving. I sincerely hope that these scriptures from the Bible will bring your family much comfort and hope, as you continue to treasure your wonderful memories of Howard.
