I am truly sorry for your loss. However, John 5:25 says “the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who have paid attention will live”. Those who have died and are in God’s memory will be resurrected to a restored earth and have a hope of everlasting life. (Psalm 37:11, 29) I hope this brings you peace.

My deep condolences to the Byrd family on the loss of your precious loved one who fallen asleep in death. May you find a measure of comfort knowing that the Most High God has given us a gift. This gift is God's written word the Bible (2Timothy 3:16 & Psalm 83:18). And in it we get to know how God's son Jesus viewed death in such a comforting way, notice this at John 11:11-14. Yes, he viewed death as one Sleeping.

May you look forward to God's promises being fulfilled at Isaiah 33:24, Isaiah 25:8, John 5:28, 29 and Psalm 37:11 lets us know where the resurrection will take place.

I hope that these few Scriptures were of some comfort to you at this time as they were to me.

In deep sympathy,
Sissy

I want to express my condolences to the family of Mr. Byrd. Death is hard to deal with, but we can take comfort from God's word the Bible at Isaiah 26:19, which reads, "Your dead will live. My corpses will rise up. Awake and shout joyfully, You residents in the dust! For your dew is as the dew of the morning, And the earth will let those powerless in death come to life." I hope these words will bring the family some measure of comfort during this time.

Dear family,
So sorry to hear of the loss of your loved one. 2 corinthians 1:3,4 helps us to see that God is there to comfort us during our trials. May you find that comfort as you endure this difficult time. May you also find hope and joy in knowing soon you will be able to see your loved one again Acts 24:15.

Sister Byrd and family,
Once again God's omnipotent hand has touched your family and called His own home to rest. It is amazing that everything is now new. Elder Byrd is completely healed and will never experience another pain or any sadness. It is now an eternity of "Holy,Holy,Holy!"
