  • First of all there is nothing wrong with your post. Second I send you my deepest sympathies. I definitely will say a prayer. And only if you want you can let me know her name in a comment and I can put your family on my church's prayer list. Again only if that is something you want me to do. Take care of yourself. Make sure you have someone you can go to for support just like your mother is going to you. I believe that your sister is in a better happier place. I know that doesn't take away your sorrow but I hope it helps a little bit. If you want to talk about your sister feel free to post as many comments as you want. Some people on here are very nice others not so nice luckily they are in the minority. So if anyone says something negative to you about your posts just ignore them don't even respond. Sending you love, light and blessings

  • I am very sorry for this loss. You are probably still in shock because of this. As far as prayers go, I will put you in my prayers so God can give you strength to deal with the terrible loss and the family related arrangements coming up. Your sister is resting in peace and is in the memory of our Creator and is very safe there. For the living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all, neither do they anymore have wages, because the remembrance of them has been forgotten. - Ecclesiates 9:5 Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice  and come out, those who did good things to a resurrection of life. - John 5:28-29

  • Hope this helps you in your time of need, it helped me. Deepest sympathy, forever and ever. LadyDutchess. One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand: one belonging to him, and the other to the Lord. When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life. This really bothered him and he questioned the Lord about it. "Lord, You said that once I decided to follow you, You'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why when I needed you most you would leave me." The Lord replied, "My son, My precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I Carried You."
  • Please accept my sincere condolences in the loss of your sister today. Sometimes, it is hard to find the words to say to someone when the pain of the loss is so great. I am learning that being present is often times the greatest comfort anyone can offer to loved ones in times of tragedy. When my Father died suddenly and unexpectedly, I think we all were trying to be strong for my Mom...and Mom was trying to be strong for all of us. It will be important for you to find a place that you feel you can let down at some point in time. You will know where and when. I pray that God's great grace will rest upon your hearts and minds.
  • You have my prayes at your time of loss.
  • Sorry for your loss. Prayers go out to you and your family.
  • I will put you and your family in my everyday prayers. Because even if a year or years pass since your sisters death you always need strength at all times. Im really sorry for your loss but God knows what he does and for what reason. I kinda know how it feels because I lost my grandma who was like my mom to me and i also lost my dad. So be strong but dont be the only one who is strong in your family because your family needs to be strong for you to because you need to grieve also. Dont worry God is always with you in the good and bad times even if at times it seems like he has abondoned us he is always there. Dont loose faith I will help you in my prayers.Best regards.
  • Oh my gosh, I'm so sorry to hear that. I'd be glad to say a prayer for her, as well as for comfort and peace for you and the rest of your family.
  • I can't see anyone being offended. I am very sorry for you and your mom. I wish you the best :)
  • I am so sorry for your loss, and of course I will pray for her, as well as for you and your family. A few years ago my baby nephew died, and one thing that helped me through it was this poem: Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glint on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle Autumn rain. When you wake in the morning hush, I am the swift, uplifting rush, Of quiet birds in circling flight. I am the soft starlight at night. Do not stand at my grave and weep. I am not there, I do not sleep. Do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there, I did not die.
  • This happened to me about 14 months ago. Your instincts at the time are to reach out to everyone. You need reassurance, you want human contact, you wonder why it happened... That's very natural. You have my sympathy. I'd recommend going through your photos to find all the ones of her. They can be used at the funeral. It gives you an activity to do at this time too.
  • How could this offend anyone? You bet I will send up some prayers for you and your mom. Tons of hugs too! Hang in there. Okay?
  • Father May you Bless the soul of Jeanne Withem (Smith)and console her family who is in need of comfort in this time of sorrow. May you reach those who do not know you and strenghten those who beleive in you... ROCKWELLTS: I wish every possible wellness upon you and your family..Amen.
  • I am so sorry that happend, I will pray for you and your family.
  • Your little sister is safe- Jesus knows every hair on her head. Be comforted. It is you and your family who need the prayers- prayers to come to terms with this tragedy. My prayers are with you, little one. Dear Heavenly Father, You have said that not even a sparrow falls to earth without you noting it. Lord, someone greater than a sparrow has fallen to earth this day, a loved child and sister. She has left behind a family that will grieve for a long while, not understanding why this has happened, and maybe, in this life, they will never understand. But you know everything, Lord, and we trust that, as you look at the big picture, this tragedy, too, is under control. Heavenly Father, look after this grieving family. Touch their hearts with your love and your peace, the peace that the world cannot give. Send your Spirit to move among them, so that they can get through this most difficult of times. And comfort them with the words of Scriptures that one day there will be a new heaven and a new earth, where there will be no crying or tears. We pray this in the name of your Dear Son, Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen
  • You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
  • I cannot see why this would offend anyone. I am sorry for you and I wish you peace :)
  • Don't feel that she is gone forever. You don't know it but she is alive in you and will always be don't you ever forget that. I am really sorry for your loss. Stay strong and know that she is always watching you.
  • Yes I will. When it comes to ssying a prayer for others it's no problem.
  • I know this was 2 months ago, but to lose a young child unexpectedly is heart wrenching. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts.
  • I know this question is a couple of months old, but i am so sorry for your loss. Of course i will pray for your sister and your family.. but please be assured she is safe in the arms of Jesus now. Incidentally my mother also died on the same day as your sister, so i do know how you are all feeling. Take care honey xxx
  • may god be with her .an watch over her an may she find peace in heaven amen.
  • I pray God gives you and your family the strength to deal with this horrible tragedy. God Bless
  • I am terribly sorry for your loss. I know what you are going thru. 2yrs ago in March my father died of a massive heart attack. The M.E. and the detective said that his heart was the size of his fist and his arteries were 85-90% blocked and that he probably felt the 1st jolt of the heart attack but nothing else because he died very quickly and even if we were in the rookm with him, we would not have been able to save him. Plus, he was alone at his hotel (waiting to go a on another job-site) was not found until the next afternoon. M.E. and Detective say he died Saturday morning and the hotel maid found him Sunday afternoon. I still miss him very much and even catch myself thinking he might call me to go out to breakfast...It's very hard, and it will take a while to not feel like your goin to die (no pun intended)from the heart ache of losing someone you love but it will get a little better as the years go by...I keep my dad's pictures in the living room and still think abou him everyday...You will never forget your sister, keep her memory alive, little by little the pain will ease... I pray for you and your family! =0)
  • I am sorry for your loss.

  • Hello Sweetie So glad you felt you could come to us, and in no way did you bother anyone. My guess most of us have lost someone here any can feel for you in a very deep way, I know I can. My prayers go out to you and your family, and may God be watching over all of you.
  • Tim I tryed to post regular way and for some reason just would now happen this morning and I really wanted to answer you. so here it is: I can't tell you the pain will go away soon, but I can tell you it will get easier. I can tell you there's no right or wrong to mourn, each person must do what feels right, some joins groups, some just need their family, some just need time. I can tell that in time the good memories will out weigh the bad ones. As for your brother-in-law he will always be family no matter what, even if he goes on in life. I haven't lost a sibling but have lost a father to suicde and even though I work at a cemetery and see death in so many ways it never gets easier when its your own family Tim just give your self time and you will be OK and so will your family, not the same as before but OK, life will be different and I'm sure your sister would not want any of your to mourn forever for her, just try to find the happy times and hang on to them, they will get you though this
  • I am very sorry ! I will say a little pray for her. You have not offended anyone. We are all thinking of you at this very sad time.
  • I'm sorry to hear of your loss. My prayers are there for you, your family and the respose of your sister's soul. God bless.
  • I am so sorry for your loss. Please tell your mom that I am praying for her and for your family. It is okay for you to cry. Please make sure you grieve also.
  • Who could possibly be offended? I am so sorry for your pain and that of your mother. I wish words could carry more comfort than they do. You're going through a very hard time right now.
  • I'm so sorry for ur loss. I'll say a prayer for her and ur family.
  • A good name is better than fine perfume, and the day of death better than the day of birth. It is better to go to a house of mourning than to go to a house of feasting, for death is the destiny of every man; the living should take this to heart. Sorrow is better than laughter, because a sad face is good for the heart. The heart of the wise is in the house of mourning, but the heart of fools in in the house of pleasure. Ecclesiates 7:1-4 This I'm sure -- won't help, but it is the only thing that came to mind. I lost my big brother and Daddy within 4 months and the suffering is awful. My heart is with you.
  • I'm so sorry for u & u'r family bcuz of the loss of u'r dear one.I can understand u'r feelings which are mixed with sorrow & sadness.Perhaps it's the will of god & no one can stop it.So,please don't worry abt this matter and remember that there are lots of people who are praying for u & u'r family.
  • Yes I will and I am very sorry for your lost. Remember that she'll always be watching over you and your family. I have gone through the same thing and as I think it's scary at times I know that I also have all of my loves who've passed watching over my family and I. It may seem strange to say but talk to her and let her know what you feel. God Bless and take care.
  • Sorry for your loss.....thoughts and prayers are with you x
  • I am so sorry for your loss. Please take care. Ill pray the rosary for all of you. Stay strong, and definitely stay strong for your mom, she needs you.
  • I am sooo sorry :( Can I ask how old she was and what happened? If you don't wanna talk about, that's no problem. I'll definitely say a prayer. I can only imagine how hard it is to lose someone, especially so young. Don't feel bad at all about posting it here or offending anyone. It's natural for prayers to be comforting at a time like this. Remember she's still there with you, in your heart/mind etc and you can still talk to her :)
  • Sorry for your loss. Little Sis has our prayers, stay tough Bro...

Remember the good times - she wants you to be happy. I will also think of you!

  • I am so sorry! God bless you and your family. My prayers are with you all. I can't tell you what to believe, but I can share with you from experience that in the darkest times of my life, I have turned all my grief and sorrow over to God. If you have no faith, try to find your faith. God will comfort you. I know it makes no since to you right now and maybe even you are blaming God. But, God has a plan for each and every one of us. Turn to Him and ask Him what his plan is for you. Seak and ye' shall find. Again, God bless you and your family at this very sad time in your life. Don't let it tear you apart. Times like this, families need to come together!
  • I am sorry for your loss and i hope the rest of your life is very great
  • This beautiful poem might help:- Do not stand at my grave and weep; I am not there. I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow. I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain. I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled filght. Iam the soft stars that shine at night. Do stand at my grave and cry; I am not there. I did not die. Your reaching out is absolute proof that we are here to help each other, my dear. Peace and comfort to you in this sad time.

  • I am sorry for your loss, especially for your mother...I will add you to my prayers. Many people often fear death or ignore that it can happen at any moment. when you recover may I suggest the book "The Tibetian book of living and dying". Take care and grieve....it is ok to be sad.

  • I am indeed sorry to hear about this piece of sad news. No one will fully understand the pain and anguish that you and your mother are going through. You are right. You must be strong for your mother. I am sure all of us who know about your posting will certainly say a prayer for your little sister as well as for your family. I went through the same trauma when my youngest sister died some years ago. The pain still lingers in our hearts. May the God of comfort grant grace, mercy and love to you and your family in your time of need. My deepest condolence and heartfelt sympathy.
