My deepest sympathy to the Waldhour family for the loss of your dear loved one. During this most difficult time, may your hearts be comforted by Jehovah God's promise to 'wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry, nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.'Rev. 21:4
