I am so sorry for your loss. May the words of our loving heavenly Father bring your family comfort and strength during this most difficult time as He promises to bring our loved ones back to life in a perfect world where there will be no more suffering or death (John 5:28-29 & Revelation 21:4).

When someone you love dies, for some, it's like a piece of you goes with them. For others, it is a relief because they know they suffer no more. However, Jehovah God knows our deepest emotions. He understands that death is an enemy that we can't fight. That's why he promises that death will be swallowed up forever. (Isaiah 25:8). Also the Bible calls death the last enemy that will be brought to nothing (1 Corinthians 15:26). We also are promised a paradise here on earth where there is no more pain or sorrow and God himself will wipe every tear from our eyes. (Revelation 21:3,4). For more BIBLE truth please visit JW.ORG

I was so sorry to see Celia's obituary in the Valdosta paper. She was a good friend to me the years we worked at Cook Middle School. May God give you peace in your grieving.

She touched so many lives and we are all blessed to have known Celia. She was a "second mother" to our Chad. Remember the good times and smile, because that is what she would want you to do. I am praying for you as you grieve.
