My condolences goes out to the blythe family and friends during their time of loss. I encourage you to go to God’s word and read Revelation 21:3,4 where God promises to do away with death forever on Paradise earth. Jesus promised to resurrect the righteous and the unrighteous at John 5:28,29. Hopefully, these scriptures will give you a measure of comfort during your time of sorrow.
