    Sorry for your loss. When I think of losing a loved one as you have, it brings to mind the promise that the Bible holds out at Revelation 21:3,4 where it says that the Grand Creator Jehovah God will wipe away sickness and death forever and reunite us with our loved one on a clean earth in the near future.(John 5:28,29; Psalms 83:18) This may sound like a dream but it will soon be a reality for many families like yours. (John 17:3)  I truly hope these scriptures can serve as comfort in your family's time of distress. For more encouragement, please go to jw.org

    Our deepest sympathy for your loss. I knew Jerry for 40 years. We were roommates for a couple of years in the mid 70's in Little Rock. We both attended Central Assembly of God Church. Jerry was a fine man that I will surely miss.
