"Dear Adair family, Please accept my deep regrets at this difficult time for death is our greatest enemy and always brings much grief and pain but I'd like to share what helped me when I lost my whole family to this enemy death even though we don't know each other because it's at times such as this we need comfort and hope and this I found in what Jehovah Gods word the Bible says at John11:11 that they're just asleep and Jesus tells us at John5:28,29 that we'll see our love ones again as well as knowing this enemy death will be done away with as ICor15:26 states. These scriptures help me get through each day because I miss my family so much and I'm hoping they'll help you in some way for this is my purpose in sharing them with you. Please know I do share your grief. Sincerely, Gloria"
