Dear Barbrey Family: My deepest sympathy for the family and friends of Milton. We will never get used to losing our loved ones in death because as Ecclesiastes 3:11 says, “We were created with everlasting life in view. But may you find comfort in knowing that Almighty God has promised that soon he will swallow up death forever along with the pain that it brings. (Isaiah 25:8) God has also promised that he will return Milton to you as it says at John 6:40, “For this is the will of my Father, that everyone that recognizes the Son and exercises faith in him should have everlasting life, and I will resurrect him on the last day.” You can also learn more about what happens when a loved one dies at JW.org.
Sincerely,

Milton was a true man of God. I truly enjoyed our friendship here on Earth. We shall meet again.
