Dear Branco family: I wish to convey my sincerest condolences to your entire family. Losing a loved one in death is one is one of the hardest things that anyone will ever have to deal with. There is a great hope held out to us for the future because God promises to bring those we lost back to life by means of a resurrection to a paradise earth, where sickness and death will be no more. I hope this brief message will bring you a measure of comfort in this difficult time.

You have my sympathy, will suffering ever end? Would you yes, no, or maybe. The bible offer comfort on that subject at revelation 21:3,4 God will wipe all tears from their eyes, andthere will be no more death, suffering, crying, or pain, yes suffering will end.
