We are so sorry to read about the passing of Linda. May God comfort all of you during your sad days and give you the strength to cope with your thoughts. During your disquieting days, think about seeing her again as a young and healthy woman full of life and doing all the things she loved. (‘loss of a loved one’ - jw dot org.)
