"My sincere condolences to Salome's family and friends. May you find comfort and hope in the promise recorded for us at Revelation 21:4 where it says "And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away". All the best wishes for your family at this difficult time. I am truly sorry for your loss."
