While words fail to capture the pain of losing a loved one, please look forward to the time when words will fail to capture the joy of having our heavenly Father return your dear loved one to you.
John 5:28,29

I am so sorry for the loss of your dear mother. May the love of family, friends, and Almighty God bring you comfort and support during your time of grief and afterward. (Ps. 83:18; Isaiah 41:10) May your precious memories of her and the hope of a resurrection bring you peace. (Acts 24:15)
