Though many years have passed since last I was with Aunt Mary Alice, I will always remember her kindness during my visit to New York. I wish I had known her better.

Words themselves cannot fully express the sorrow that is felt over the loss of your dear Mary Alice. Losing a loved one is such a difficult thing to deal with, but especially when it comes unexpectedly. As time goes by,though, you will begin to realize that as you think of her smiles, her affection for family, her laughter, the pain has diminished a bit and you'll find yourself smiling again. I didn't know her personally but, having lost someone dear to me, I can empathize with the pain you have and continue to experience. What comfort such scriptures as John 5:28,29 brought me! You will read there about the promise Jesus gave of resurrecting our loved ones back to life. When he resurrected His friend Lazarus back to life, He showed his ability and desire to fulfill that promise. ( John 11:38-44 ) Can you just imagine the joy Lazarus' sisters felt when they held him in their arms once again? This joy we too will feel in the very near future. Until that day comes, we have the promise that God will draw close to those whose hearts have been broken ( Psalms 34:18 ) I truly hope these few scriptures have helped lessen the pain you feel as they had mine.
