I just want to take a moment to share a few thoughts that I've had as I've been reflecting how fragile this existence really is. The only way to conquer death was through God's sacrifice of His Only Begotten Son Jesus Christ. Through God's loving grace, we will all one day be able to live again. And not only will we just live again, but we will be able to live again with our families. Through the restoration of the Gospel, God gave the power back to man to be able to be sealed for time and all eternity and not just "until death do you part."
I know that my cousin will be reunited with his family. I know that my family will be together forever. FAMILIES ARE ETERNAL. And though life will bring death, and sometimes in ones too young, the Gospel of Jesus Christ brings knowledge, faith, hope, peace, and love. I am grateful for the grace of my Savior. I'm grateful for the comfort that His Atonement can bring and the knowledge that families are forever. It makes the loss of a loved one just a little easier to bear.

Was he ill? Or was this sudden? Thank you for your testimony; the Gospel certainly does ease the pain at the loss of a loved one.
It was very sudden.
Thanks Lachelle
