Sending sincere condolences to the family and dear friends of Shirley Rea. I am terribly sorry to hear of her passing. Dealing with the death of a loved one can be quite hard. What helped me when dealing with the death of my loved one was that of relying on the God of all comfort. That undoubtedly was the main thing that got me through such a difficult time, and I’m sure it can help you as well. God never wants to see us suffer, and for this reason, 1 Peter 5:7 states, “Throw ALL your anxiety on him, because he cares for you.” Allow God to bear ALL of your pain and heartache. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
