Janette Ainsworth Knapp My throughts and prayers are we you and your family patty Donnelly Dear parents of Lena, I am so sorry for the loss of your daughter and your unborn grandchild. At terribly sad times like this, words may seem of little comfort, but i wish to share with you comfort from the one who knows how we feel, our Creator. We may wonder why? or if their is anything to look forward to? Jesus well knew the Bible statement:" Time and unforeseen occurrence befall them all"[Ecclesiastes 9:11]. He knew that sometimes bad things just happen. The wonderful future resurrection hope is the promise found at John 5:28,29. Revelation 21:3,4 states that in the future ' death will be no more. and pain will be no more, the former things will have passed away.' Our Creator, Jehovah God, by means of his son Jesus, is going to undo the tragedies that touch our lives today and we will be able to welcome back onto the paradise earth,our loved ones who have fallen asleep in death. You can read much Bible-based comfort on the website www.jw.org sincerely dianne mullins I am very sorry that Lena passed away with her unborn child and the other innocent people in the van.You were truly a great friend to hang with I will never forget you!
