Dear Beehler Family, please except my deepest condolences for the loss of your loved one Elden. May Jehovah, the God of all comfort, (2Corinthians 1:3,4) comfort you in this time of sorrow. May you find comfort in His word that gives us hope that one day there will be no more sickness (Isaiah 33:24) and that there will be no more pain and death. (Revelations 21:3,4) We will also be able to see our loved ones that are asleep in death again by means of the resurrection that Jesus spoke about at John 5:28,29, and all those in Jehovah's memory will live forever in peace, on earth. (Psalms 37:29) If you would like to learn more about the wonderful hope and blessings found in God's word the bible, please visit jw.or and may the peace of God that excels all thoughts, guard your very souls

To the Beehler family, I am so sorry for your loss. Words cannot describe the incredible amount of pain you may be feeling right now. I know words can only work so much at this time, but please allow gods word to comfort you at this time. Isaiah 26:19 says: "Your dead will live. My corpses will rise up. Awake and shout joyfully, you residents in the dust! The earth will let those powerless in death come to life" This is one of many scriptures that talk about a resurrection of our dead loved ones right to this earth! What a beautiful thought to see our loved ones again! Please know that I am thinking about you and your family at this difficult time. Sincerely Caleb Aniol Jworg
