Nicholas and family, so sorry to read of Mom's passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you. Duane
I am very sorry for your loss. The loss of a loved one is never easy, but I hope that you can find comfort in God's word the Bible. One of the scriptures that helps me when losing a loved one is found in John 5:28,29, "Do not be amazed at this, for the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his (Jesus) voice and come out." It will not be long before Jesus calls our loved ones from the grave and they will answer. We all look forward to that wonderful day, because no matter who we are, we have all loss someone that we love. Furthermore, Jehovah God gave us all a very precious gift, which is the gift of his son as noted in John 3:16, "For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, so that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life." What a wonderful gift, and because of that gift we all have an opportunity to live forever. Please accept my deepest sympathy, and for more comforting information please refer to JW.org.
I enjoyed working with Ilse at Ronald McDonald House. It was fun to see the photos of her grandsons!
God bless Ilse's survivors.
