To: The Rumph Family.
I am sorry for your lost. May you find comfort from God’s Word the Bible. Jesus said: At John 6:40 For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who recognizes the Son and exercises faith in him should have everlasting life, and I will resurrect him on the last day.
May the hope in this Scripture bring you comfort and strength to endure the difficult days ahead. Please visit jw.org.
