Please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. It is especially difficult when we lose someone so young. I have had much comfort from the promises held out in God’s Word, the Bible. John 5:28,29 speaks of a resurrection to life. Then we will see fulfilled God’s original purpose for the earth, having perfect, healthy people under God’s care and rulership as expressed in the Lord’s Prayer, for God’s Kingdom to come and his will be done on earth as in heaven. Then the earth will no longer see pain, sorrow or even death. May you also receive comfort from your own Bible as you read of these promises yourself.. Psalm 37:29; Isaiah 33:24 ;Revelation 21:3,4

We are so sorry to hear of Wahena’s passing. She was such a very sweet gal, who had a smile on her face every time I ever talked to her. I always found her to be so pleasant and enjoyed her every time she was around me. Your family will be remembered in our prayers. We are so sorry. We know that we will see Wahena and all our loved ones again. God bless you all
