My sincere condolences for the family. May God strenghten you all and help you to cope at this sad time. Psalms 29:11 tells us that God will give peace and strenght to those in need of comfort.

My deepest sympathies. May the God of all comfort strengthen the entire family during this time of sorrow. Keep in mind that God keeps in his memory those whom we lose because they are precious in his eyes. (Psalms 116:15)
