That is to sad. I'm sorry to hear this news. Death is a horrible thing. I don't think that anyone who has never lost someone close to them truly knows what it feels like and understands. I heard this illustration once, and I always think of it when i get sad. But our dead loved ones aren't dead to Jehovah, they are sleeping. Think about a mother who has a child. She puts them to bed for a nap, and while they are sleeping, she doesn't worry about them. They are safe, nothing can harm them. This is how Jehovah feels, our dead loved ones are sleeping, and safe, Satan can't harm them now, they endured. Now when its time for the child to wake up, the mother goes into his/her room and gently touches the child's arm and tells them it's time to wake up. When the new system comes, Jehovah is going to tell our dead loved ones "its time to get up". that always makes me feel good.
