My sincere sympathy goes out to you on your precious loss. I understand the pain of losing loved ones to the sting of death. Three years ago our daughter died and April 21, 2017 my beloved husband of 50 years fell asleep in death.
I would like to share what has helped me to cope. It wasn't just the outpouring of love from the many Congregations across the United States but the reality of what was contained in the Scriptures. Reading about how the Most High God's son Jesus viewed death was indeed comforting: Psalms 83:18 & John 11:11-14. Psalms gives the name of the Most High & the book of John gives Jesus view of death yes, as one Sleeping. Not that one is here or there but is sleeping. And the Scriptures even say where: Daniel 12:2 but I look to the future with complete hope of seeing my loved ones again free from sickness, pain & sorrow: Isaiah 33:24, Revelation 21:3,4. The Scriptures even say where they will be resurrected to & how long we will be together: John 5:28, 29 & Psalms 37:11 & Psalms 37:29.
Well, I hope that just these few Scriptures were of some comfort to you as they were to me.
Sent in deep sympathy & love, Sissy

Miriam bought so much joy into mine and Smittys life. I have a big amen corner building up there in Heaven and I know you be right in the middle. You loved to hear me preach and you made preaching easy. To Kaye you got to hang in there be strong... Twyla, Belle, and Margaret you were her rock. You were always there when she needed you. I have been so honor to be a part of her ministry team and I am truly honored you guys have allowed me to care for Momma even in death. May God hold you close in his heart.

To the families and loved ones of Mrs. Rogers, who we know will be dearly missed. Almighty God promised at Revelation 21:4 that he will wipe away all our tears. And death, pain, and sorrow will be no more. So you can take great comfort in drawing close to God in prayer. And he will sustain and help support your families to endure, during these difficult times. My deepest condolences to all of your loved ones.
