My heartfelt sympathies go out to the family and friends during this difficult time. I hope that the promise in Revelation 21: 3, 4 can bring comfort. Knowing that there's a hope for the ones we have lost in death can be so reassuring. https://www.jw.org/en/publications/books/good-news-from-god/what-hope-for-the-dead/video-condition-of-dead-lazarus/#?insight[search_id]=87d0c1dd-b25a-4b3d-b8ce-c5f88809ba7e&insight[search_result_index]=11

Chief - you treated me like a son from the day I met you . You gave me the opportunity to marry my best friend. You will always be the MVP's of grandfathers - Lindsay and Cody were blessed and lucky to have you in their lives. Rest in peace Chief and always keep a watch over all of us.
