We would like to extend sincere condolences to all family members and friends of Jacob. What a rich and fulfilling life he must have led! Psalm 90:10 says that “the span of our life is 70 years, or 80 if one is especially strong.” So for Jacob to live 87 years far surpasses what that scripture says, and although being a time of grief, that fact is truly a wonderful blessing to look back on! In the days ahead, you can be certain that soon, “death will be no more” on the earth (Revelation 21:4), and that millions who are asleep in the grave will again wake up by being resurrected back to life in the very near future! (John 5:28, 29a) May this future resurrection be something in which you and all who are grieving at this time can find comfort.
