    I am sorry to hear about the lost of Mr. Nash. Although I did not know him personally, I would still like to offer his family some comforting thoughts. Long ago, the faithful man Job asked, "If a man dies, can he live again?" You too may have wondered the same thing. Is it possible to reunite with our loved ones? The bible promises at Isaiah 26:19 that "your dead ones will live...they will rise up." Jesus Christ also foretold of a time "when all those in the memorial tombs will come out." (John 5:28,29) So it is possible for us to see our loved ones again. When death strikes, the grief and pain can be unbearable. But you can take comfort knowing that you have the hope of seeing your loved ones again. Rather, you can draw close to Jehovah God (Psalms 83:18) in prayer, and the bible promise "he will sustain you." (Psalms 55:22) I hope that these words and scriptures can be a source of comfort to you and your family in your time of need. If you would like to talk further or have any questions, please contact the above email address or your local Kingdom Hall.
