    Please allow me to offer my condolences to the, Cecchi family with these healing words: ” And the last enemy, death, is to be brought to nothing.” (1 Cor. 15:26; Rev, 20:14) Under Jesus’ rule, all the earth will become a paradise; the dead who are in God’s memory will be raised with an opportunity to enjoy perfect life on earth forever. This is the hope for, Nancy, as well. What magnificent foregleams fill our minds as we meditate on these promises! Wondrous provisions are in store for faithful mankind under heaven’s loving government. I am very sorry for your loss. May God’s Word comfort you and your family.
