Thinking of you still - cant believe its almost a year since you have been gone. Miss you Sally Higgns

Dear loving family and friends of Judy, I'm very sorry to read of the sad loss of your loved one, and although I don't know you; I want to offer my deepest sympathy to you in your loss. And I hope that you will find some comfort in these verses. Acts 24:15 promises, "that there is going to be a resurrection." Our loving God doesn’t cause sad things to happen to our loved ones, as James 1:13 helps us to understand, ‘When under trial, let no one say: “I am being tried by God.’ For with evil things God cannot be tried nor does he himself try anyone.’” Revelation 21:4 speaks of the time when no more sadness or cause for mourning; as there it assures us, "And (God) will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.” And no sickness of any kind as Isaiah 33:24 promises, “no resident will say: ‘I am sick.’” Older ones will grow young again as Job 33:25, "Let his flesh become fresher (or, healthier) than in youth; Let him (her) return to the days of his (her) youthful vigor." When Jesus was on the earth, he healed all types of infirmities and even raised the dead; thus in the future, we can have the hope to see our loved ones again through the resurrection! - Jesus resurrected his friend Lazarus back to life, speaking of his death as being 'sleep' and saying he was going to 'awaken' him. - Luke 11:11-14, 23, 25, 38-45. Jesus also resurrected a young man, the only son of a widow, and a 12 yr. old girl. - (Luke 7:11-17; Luke 8:40-56) Then many will be resurrected to life here on an earth that will become a peaceful paradise where loved ones will be welcomed back to life! This time is told of at Psalms 37:10, 11, 29, "Just a little while longer, and the wicked will be no more; You will look at where they were, and they will not be there. But the meek will possess the earth, and they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace. The righteous will possess the earth, and they will live forever on it." Take care, and I hope that your memories are bringing comfort to you, perhaps by looking at pictures, and I hope that these and other verses will also comfort you. - Romans 15:4 tells us, "For all the things that were written aforetime were written for our instruction, that through our endurance and through the comfort from the Scriptures we might have hope." Please go to www.jw.org and click on 'publications' near the top on the site, and then look to the left and click on 'books and brochures' then please look to the right and click on page 2 and then click on the small tract, "Can the dead really live again?" This is very comforting! Sincerely Yours, Cindy Boyer

There is nothing I can add that has not already been said. You have been my friend, mentor and mother on so many occasions. Though we met only a few short years ago, there will be a gaping hole in my life and an empty mobile next to mine.
