May Jehovah the "God of Comfort" be with your family during this difficult time. We look forward to the promise mentioned at,Revelation 21:4, "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. The former things have passed away.”

My deepest sympathy to the Staten family. I am so sorry for your loss. Gods word the bible will bring you comfort at this time of need read 2Cor.1:3,4. God who is the highest over all the earth ( Psalms 83:18) will take away the tears of pain. The loss of a loved one can be a very paining and devastating experience for all of us . That's why Acts 24:15 tells us that there will be a resurrection of our dear loved ones. One day we won't know what pain,tears,mourning,outcry,even death be anymore. Those things will be no more. They will be gone forever. How wonderful a God we have to resurrect our loved ones read John 5:28,29.
