To the family and friends of Dorothy Watkins, I extend my condolence. I did not know Dorothy, but I do know the emotional pain and emptiness that one experiences during a time like this. Take comfort from the scriptures in knowing that there will be a resurrection of all those in the grave. (John 5:28,29) That includes Dorothy. Titus 1:2 states that God cannot lie so we can put all our faith and confidence in him and his word the Bible. For more information, click the following link, www.jw.org, select "Publications" and click the yellow "Bible Teach" book. Scroll and read the chapter "Real Hope for Our Loved Ones Who Have Died" along with your Bible. Always remember the good times you had with Dorothy and the Bible's promise of seeing Dorothy again. What a joyful time that will be. Not only for you and your family, but for Dorothy too.
