Aaron and family,
Although we have known each other for a very short time I wanted to tell you how sorry I was to hear of your recent loss. My prayers are with you and your family through this sad time in your life.

Aaron and Family,
I met you just a short time ago when bringing in a FedEx truck for an estimate. I was shocked when I read the Obit in the paper yesterday morning. My thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family as you mourn this tragic loss of your son Aaron. Although I had never met your son, I'm sure he was a great kid, knowing what a good father he had to emulate. My sympathies are with you at this time.

Dear Family,
I
wanted to express my deepest sympathy and concern for you and also share with you that fulfillment of Bible prophecies shows that we are living in the ?last days.? (2 Timothy 3:1-5); (Matthew 24: 1-14) Although as a result, things are very bad all over the globe, it also means that very soon, the Sovereign of the Universe, Jehovah God is going to intervene in human?s affairs and wipe out wickedness along with all the problems we face today, which include death once and for all. (Psalms 37: 9-11); (John 5: 28 and 29); (Revelation 21: 3 and 4) We can have confidence in these astounding promises because Jesus, who has been appointed by God to soon rule or govern the entire earth as King of God?s Heavenly Kingdom or Government, demonstrated that bringing the dead back to life is guaranteed when he resurrected many including his friend Lazarus when he was on earth. (Daniel 2:44); (Daniel 7: 13. 14); (Isaiah 9:6, 7); (John 11). So as you await the fulfillment of the resurrection promise along with the countless of blessings God?s Kingdom will pour on earth to make it a paradise where righteous ones will reunite with their resurrected loved ones and enjoy forever, please take in accurate knowledge, which Jesus said means everlasting life, by studying the Bible for FREE with the Jehovah?s Witnesses (John 17:3); (John 5:39)
May you be comforted by the cited Scriptures in this time of sorrow!
