    Our thoughts are with your family at this difficult time. In the Bible we find much comfort for our sorrow. In Matthew 5:4 Jesus said happy are those who mourn since they will be comforted. Also God said he would really help us and grasp our hand. So he says we do not to fear for he is our God. ( Isaiah 41:10,13)
