Very sorry to read of the passing of your dear loved one. Von was so young with so much more to give and get from life. Life is such a precious gift and yet so short-lived for the time we exist.
We are comforted by the hope of the resurrection.
God holds out this wonderful hope for all those in the grave. At John 11:25 Jesus said " I AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE. HE THAT EXERCISES FAITH IN ME, EVEN THOUGH HE DIES, WILL COME TO LIFE."
Mark 5-38-43 is one of the nine accounts of ones who were resurrected. How comforting to know these things from the Holy Scriptures. What a blessed reason to hope in God! (JOHN 5-28,29)
The gift of memories of Von will bring you great joy and turn into a treasure.
You and yours will receive strength though prayer to God, you will feel comfort by the loving concern of your God-fearing friends, and you will be uplifted by studying God's Word.
Trust in " the God of All Comfort " (Psalms 83-18)
