Jon, I’m so sorry for this to have happened to your family. God Never intended for us to have to deal with Death, It is only because of Adam and Eve’s sin That we are cursed with it.
Here are a few scriptures, I would like to share with you and your family.
“There is going to be a resurrection.â€â€”Acts 24:15, New World Translation.
Comfort when loved ones die.—2 Corinthians 1:3, 4.
Freedom from a morbid fear of death.—Hebrews 2:15.
A real hope of being reunited with your dead loved ones.—John 5:28, 29.
