Dear David Jackson and Family, I wanted to take the time to write to you today, to express my sympathy for the loss of your wife Philippa. Like you, my life has been touched by the death of a loved one. My friends and family were a great comfort, but what helped me to cope was reflecting on the Bible's hope of seeing my loved one again, in what the Bible calls the Resurrection Hope". When all our dear friends and family that have passed away, will be brought back to life. Here are just a couple of scriptures in the Bible which describe this hope. Isaiah 25:8 "He (God) will actually swallow up death forever, and the Sovereign Lord Jehovah will certainly wipe the tears from all faces"....... John 5:28 "Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice (the voice of Jesus) and come out". I sincerely wish all the best for you and your family at this time. Sincerely, One of Jehovah's Witneses"
Dear David and Family I was just browsing through the internet, looking for people whom we knew in Australia, when I came across the very sad news of Philippa's passing. May we all wish you comfort and peace in your sad loss. We are all shocked. Even though it has been quite a time since we have been in touch, we still have fond memories of Philippa and you. We now live in the U.K. It would be good to hear from you sometime. My address is: rachael_goldman@yahoo.co.uk We changed our surname prior to leaving Australia for Israel. Be well. With warm wishes Rosanne, David, Gavriella, Tirzah and Ortal Goldman (aka Zavelsky) PS You can read a bit about the girls on www.goldmanensemble.com
