My condolences go out to the family and friends of Monica Cortez. Losing a loved one so young is never easy. We all want to spend our lives with the ones we love and death gets in the way of that. But what brings me comfort is Acts 24:15 where it says “there is going to be a resurrection.” It's reassuring to know that I will see my loved one again and so can you. Look to the hope ahead (2 Peter 3:13 and Revelation 21:4) as you comfort one another with happy memories of joyful times together. My deepest sympathy.
