I will truly miss u Muller. You were one of the strongest women I know to raise all these children. Your love was unconditional. You taught us to love, morals, and ethics. Thank you for being our second Mom!!!

She truly was a strong woman and I look forward to seeing her and your mother when Jehovah calls them from the memorial tombs (John 5:28-29).

I am sorry for your loss. The Bible calls death an enemy, one that will be gone shortly as God's Kingdom with Jesus Christ as king will rid the earth of all God's enemies. We will see the fulfillment of Psalm 37:9-11 and 29, the wicked are gone and the righteous ones will live on the earth forever. Our happiness would not be complete without the loved ones we have lost. Jesus promised a resurrection at John 5:28-29 so we will see our loved ones again. Please take time to visit www.jw.org which provides many answers to Bible subjects.
