I would like to express my condolences to you for the loss of your brother, Mr. Arthur Hoffman. The death of a loved one can be most devastating. But during this time in your life, there are many ways to cope with your sorrow. Always take care of yourself, because there are others that need you. Accept help from others, because you can't do everything yourself. And most of all rely on Jehovah God, which the Bible at 2 Corinthians 1:3 identifies as 'the God of all comfort who comforts us in all our tribulations'. He provides this comfort with the promise that Jesus made at John 5:28 which states that 'the hour is coming when all those in their graves will hear Jesus' voice and be resurrected'. And since Jehovah is the One who gave life to all living things, we can be certain that He is capable of restoring life to someone who has died. This is the hope of the resurrection. What joy you will feel when you are able to be reunited again with Mr. Hoffman on this earth under peaceful conditions, when he is once again youthful and with vigor.
