I am very sorry to read about the passing of Addie, my condolences to her families of those loss.Losing our love ones to death wasn't God's original purpose for us.Soon He will bring this enemy death to an end by "swallowing up death for ever".Isaiah 25:8.

Keeping you, family, in prayer and know that “Mae” will live on in the hearts of those who love her. May God continue to guide and keep you; and know that He knows what you can handle and lean on Him to handle the rest.

To family and friends my deepest sympathy for the loss of your loved one. Losing a loved one in death is very painful. Almighty God Jehovah
(Psalms 83:18; God's name) promises that he will resurrect millions of people who have died. Read Isaiah 26:19.
"There is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and unrighteous."
Read John 5:28,29. What a wonderful time that will be when we will see our loved ones again right here on the earth! Learn more about Jesus Christ and how he will make God's wonderful promises come true at jw.org.
May the God of comfort and tender mercies sustain you during this most difficult time.
2 Corinthians 1:3,4
