Please accept my condolences for your loss of Bernard. He certainly had a full life of giving of himself over his years of life here on this earth. I am sure this is a very difficult time for all of the family to loose someone close to you at such a young age, I lost my father at the age of 74 due to heart illness. But I took comfort from what I found in our Bible about the future of death at Revelation 21:4 where it says "Death will be no more", we look forward to when these words are fulfilled, and also the words found at John 5:28,29 where it tells us that we will soon be able to welcome back our loved ones from the grave. I truly believe these words and that I will see my Dad again on this earth , as a paradise. Please, read these words from your copy of the Bible and take comfort from them as I have.
