We are so sorry for your loss. May the God of all comfort, Jehovah, look after you during this most difficult time. In the book of Revelation 21:3,4 there is a beautiful promise he gives where he says that soon will come a time when death, mourning, and tears will be no more. May thoughts and scriptures like this be of comfort to you during this most difficult time.
What an amazing life that was lead. 110 great-grandchildren(!!!) I hope to someday be that experienced and memorable. Death is truly an unnatural truncation of God’s most beautiful creation. I offer my condolences but also congratulations to the family and friends for having known such a dynamic person.
