Dear Kathleen, Theresa-&-Harry, Beverly-&-Jeff, Douglass-&-Connie, Barbara-&-Joe, and Other Family and Friends:
I was saddened to learn of the death of Douglass on July 23, 2015. It is sad to lose a loved one in death at any age, but hopefully at 77 years of age, it can be said of Douglass what was said of Isaac at Genesis 25:39 "he died old and satisfied with days." Even though I did not know Douglass personally, please accept my deepest sympathy in this second year of your loss.
I would like to share with you some verses from the Bible that bring continuing comfort, thoughts that others have shared with me when I lost loved ones.
First, it was never our Creator's purpose that anyone should die, ever! When He put Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, they had the prospect of endless life in ageless bodies, in perfect health, on a perfect Earth (Genesis 1:28). Adam and Eve could have passed that life on to us, but they sinned and lost everything for themselves ... and us. (Romans 5:12)
Next, it comforted me and softened my feelings toward Jehovah God to learn that it is Satan who causes aging, sicknesses like cancer, and death--not God (Hebrews 2:14). Long before He created humans, the Creator already had all the angels He wanted in heaven (Job 38:7).
Finally, the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ are our guarantees that this Earth will yet be a peaceful, global paradise and that Douglass (and countless millions of others including William-&-Helen, Deborah and Donna, and Charles) will be resurrected to enjoy it! Remember Jesus' words at John 5:28-29a and John 11:25: "I am the resurrection and the life," and "all those in the memorial tombs ... will be resurrected." Until then Douglass, Rest In Peace.
May you have comfort and peace from these promises until the day when you can be reunited with a young and healthy Douglass. And, ... if you would ever like to know more about when and how our Creator Jehovah will bring about these wonderful blessings (or why He has allowed sickness, suffering and death since Adam and Eve sinned so long ago), please feel free to contact me at the address below.
With deepest sympathy and genuine respect,
Harolyne Grant

Kay and family, we have had the privilege of knowing and spending time with a man who made a difference. You knew him as a husband, father and grandfather, I knew him as a friend and an environmentalist. We will all miss him but what he started and did will carry forward. Peace be with you all. Niles
