I am very sorry for your loss. However, Almighty God has provided a guarantee of a resurrection to all people in His memory by resurrecting Jesus from the dead. (Psalm 83:18; Acts 17:31) We will be able to see our loved ones again on a restored earth. (Psalm 37:11, 29) May you trust in God to comfort you until that time. (Prov. 3:5, 6) He is the Source of our help. (Ps. 121:1, 2)

Our deepest sympathy to the family of Mr. Smith. We met him in the door to door ministry. He always had time to talk to us. His calm demeanor and deep respect for the word will resonate with me each time that I think of him. May your memories of your loved one give you peace. May the God of comfort, comfort you at this difficult time. 2 Corinthians 1: 2-4 Calls him the father of tender mercies and the God of all comfort. Once again, our deepest sympathy.

Dear Jean, Paula, Marcia and Family,
My sincerest condolences during your time of bereavement. I will always have fond memories of Mr. Smith, particularly in his role at First Baptist Church. He was always an excellent role model for me when I was growing up as a youth at the church. May the Lord comfort and strengthen you.

As solid as a man in this world could ever be.
A plumb line set in the midst of First Baptist Church. That says it all.

My deep condolences to the Smith family. Although, we have never met I have lost loved ones to the pain of death. And I would like to share what helped me during those most difficult times. And I hope it will help you too.
It wasn't just being around family & friends. But the hope & encouragement you get from the gift that the Most High God gave to each & everyone of us, yes that is His written word the Bible (Psalms 83:18 & 2Timothy 3:16). Please, notice how God's precious son Jesus viewed death in such a gentle way. At John 11:11-14 yes he viewed death as one sleeping. And God gives us the assurance that there will be a resurrection of loved ones from the sting of death (John 5:28, 29). And He even says where they are are & where they will be (Daniel 12:2 & Psalms 37:11). May you look forward to God's promises being fulfilled (Titus 1:2).

I hope these few Scriptures were of some comfort. Please feel free to contact me or visit jw.org for more words of encouragement. Our daughter fell asleep in death and recently my precious husband of 50 years fell asleep in death also. I truly understand.

With deep sympathy,
Sissy
