My deespest sympathy. To lose a loved one is hard and for it to happen unexpectedly surely add to the pain of death. Psalms 56:8 “Do put my tears in your skin bottle. Are they not in your book?” God is aware of the tears you are shedding. He gives hope, Acts 24:15, John 5:28-29 and Isaiah 26:19, all speak of the resurrection hope. A standing up again, a coming to life. Take comfort in this promise of God and in your good memories.
