Condolence: Dear Family, My heartfelt condolences go out to you for your loss. Many of us can relate to what it feels like to be touched by death. What has helped my family to cope were scriptures such as John 5:28,29; Revelation 21:3,4; 1Peter 5:6,7. Reading and thinking on these scriptures can help to soothe your pain and bring you comfort and strength in the weeks and months to come. Knowing that our loving Heavenly Father understands and cares about what you're going through can be a real source of strength. I pray you will find solace and hope in those scriptures. For more comfort, please go to JW.org. Take good care.

Condolence: The news of Tommy's passing hit those of us who were his friends very hard. We will greatly miss his boisterous personality. Some of the times when I have laughed hardest in my life were because of something Tommy said. My heart grieves for you in his loss, and I pray that somehow God will grant you strength and a measure of comfort and understanding.

Condolence: I am so sorry for the loss of your beloved Thomas. This is never easy to face, in fact death can be viewed as an enemy. That's how our Creator Jehovah views it as according to 1 Cor. 15:26; which says, "And the last enemy, death, is to be brought to nothing." May you find comfort in knowing this and that he has a longing to conquer that enemy, to undo death by means of the resurrection.
