Condolence: Dear Franklin Family: Please accept my deepest sympathy for the family and friends of Joseph. We will never get used to losing our loved ones in death because as Ecclesiastes 3:11 says, we were created with everlasting life in view. But may you find comfort in knowing that Almighty God has promised that soon he will swallow up death forever along with the pain that it brings. (Isaiah 25:8) God has also promised that he will return "Joe" to you as it says at John 5:28,29 and also Psalms 37:29. You can also learn more about what happens when a loved one dies at JW.org. Sincerely, Susan

Condolence: I am sorry to hear of your loss. I hope that these scriptures at Job 14:14,15 and Revelation 21:4 will provide some comfort for the family and friends. Also, for some comforting articles please visit jw.org.

Condolence: Dad, Joe, Papa...we will forever miss you. You are one of a kind and have left such a huge impact on all our lives. You will never be forgottten and we will live the rest of our days with you in our hearts. Love you to the end of the ocean and back!
