"Friends and family of Mrs. Brown please accept my condolences. The death of a loved one is truly a sad experience. The Bible gives us hope it speaks of a time when "death will be no more." You can read is at Rev 21:4."

"To the family and friends of Linda Brown: Please accept my condolences regarding the death of Ms. Brown. Inasmuch as the death of a loved one can be painful, the Bible gives us a hope for the future. At John 5:28,29, Jesus spoke about the time when "all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out." Yes, the Bible speaks about a resurrection of the dead.
