Our prayers are with you all during the time of bereavement, but we know that our Lord and Saviour will strengthen you! Janice was a very kind and gentle person, and her spirit was loving. The few times I (Ernestine) was in her presence, we had some good times talking together. I remember her telling me that she was getting married so I made it my top priority to be at her wedding which was dynamic! The last time I saw her was at an event of Israel Melvin and we talked nearly the whole time. I will miss her, but I understand that God makes no mistake so He gave her the keys to her heavenly mansion! God bless all of you and stay encouraged in in the Lord!

My expressions of condolence to the family. Be assured that Jehovah God is aware of what you are experiencing at this time in the loss of your loved one. Ezekiel 18:32 tells us that He does not take any pleasure in the death of anyone. Isaiah 25:8 tells us He will swallow up death forever. So we can look forward to the time when no one will have to die. For more information please refer to web site jw.org

My heartfelt condolence to the family and friends of Janice. The death of a loved one is hard to bear. Your heavenly father understands your pain as he, too, experienced the death of his only begotten son, Jesus Christ. Just as he raised his son to life, we are promised the hope of a resurrection for our dead loved ones, John 5:28, 29 and John 3:16. Until then, may the God of comfort, comfort your family, helping you to heal, 2 Thessalonians 2:16, 17.
