Dear family of Lou Ella Thomas:
I was sorry to hear that you lost your loved one. Losing a loved one in death is one of the hardest things that any of us will ever deal with. He will be missed by many in his family as well as those he met. I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses and wanted to share my condolences. I would like to share a Bible thought that is found at Revelation chapter 21 and verses 3 and 4 where it says: "With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: �Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them.And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes,and death will be no more,neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.� This scripture makes it very clear that God does not want us to grow old, sick and die because he promises to wipe out those very things as you can see in those verses. God�s purpose is to restore the dead to life by means of a resurrection to a paradise earth, where sickness and death will be no more. You have the hope to see her in God�s new world where she will be in perfect health. That is something we all can look forward to because death affects us all. I hope this brief Bible message has brought you a measure of comfort in this difficult time.
