To the Jackson family we send our deepest sympathies. The God of comfort knows death is a great blow to mankind. But he loved us so much he provided lovingly through the ransom of his son, Jesus so that we will not just live again but live forever under His kingdom that we pray for. The promises are recorded at Revelation 21:3,4 , "And the tent of God will be with mankind and they will be his people. 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 has passed away." What a beautiful garantee from our loving Father, Jehovah. He truly wants all to be happy and live eternally. May this provide comfort and peace to all who are mourning their loss.

He Will Call
(Job 14:13-15)
Life, like a mist, appears for just a day,
Then disappears tomorrow.
All that we are can quickly fade away,
Replaced with tears and sorrow.
If a man should die, can he live again?
Hear the promise God has made:
He will call; The dead will answer.
They shall live at his command.
For he will have a longing
For the work of his own hand.
So have faith, and do not wonder,
For our God can make us stand.
And we shall live forever,
As the work of his own hand.
Friends of our God, though they may pass away,
Will never be forsaken.
All those asleep who in God's mem'ry stay,
From death he will awaken.
Then we'll come to see all that life can be:
Paradise eternally.

So sorry to read about the loss of your loved one. God cares so deeply about us that he has gone to great lengths to make the fulfillment of his purpose a certainty. (John 3:16). One of his promises is no more death. Another of his promises is that those in his memory will be brought back to life. May these facts bring you some comfort.
