My condolences to the family. Sometimes gentle words can do much to soften the intense sadness when a dear loved one dies. God's Word acknowledges that our hearts can be "broken and crushed". (Psalm 51:17) Even in severe situations, God can bring relief to a stricken heart if we pray to him in full faith, and observe his commandments. (Psalm 143:8,10)
May "the God of all comfort" soothe the families aching hearts. (2 Corinthians 1:3,4)
