To the family,
I am sincerely sorry for your loss. It’s never easy to lose a loved one under any circumstance. Please be assured that Jehovah God is aware of your pain and he is near to the brokenhearted.(Psalm 34:18) For the bible promises us that there will be a resurrection (John 5:28, 29) and God will bring an end to Death once and for all (Revelation 21:4). From that point on we will never have to feel the pangs of death again. I pray these words and scriptures are able to bring you some comfort.
Mike,Susan and family,
I am so sorry for your loss. Prayers for comfort and strength to all.
