Please accept my heartfelt sympathy for your loss. “There’s magic in a Mother’s touch, and sunshine in her smile. There’s love in everything she does to make our lives worthwhile. We can find both hope and courage just by looking in her eyes. Her laughter is a source of joy, her works are warm and wise. There is a kindness and compassion to be found in her embrace and we see the light of heaven shining from a Mother’s face.” - Author Unknown Wishing you peace to bring comfort, courage to face the days ahead and loving memories to forever hold in your hearts. My thoughts and prayers are with you!

I offer my sincere condolences to the Eikhoff family. It can be hard to find comfort after the loss of a loved one. In these times we often wonder will suffering ever end. The bible tells us that "soon suffering will be no more." and that we can "look to God for comfort in all of our trials." (Revelation 21: 3,4) - (2 Corinthians 1: 3, 4) jw.org
