In these times, we have two responses, remembering the Joy that you shared, and knowing that when we received Jesus as Savior and Lord living accordingly to his word; we will see them again.

In a dream Quell said,
" I don't know what death is, but if you want to see me again, you Better know JESUS."

That is our ultimate hope, knowing Him, to see those who have gone before us....
