Daniel L. Carlson, 21

I was Daniel's father. We were always together and had the best father - son relationship anyone could ever ask for!

Memories too numerous to count!

The last thing we said to each other was, I love you!

My deepest sympathy to the family of Daniel on the loss of your dear loved one.

Being a veteran myself, I have pondered the question of: Will War and Suffering Ever End? Why The Question Arises: War continues to claim untold numbers of human lives. All of us have been touched by human suffering. In my search, I have not found the answer in the many fields of thought out there. One day I decided to read one of the oldest history books known to man. Namely, God's Word the Holy Bible. It teaches: God foretells a time when he will established peace earth wide. Under his Kingdom, a heavenly government, people will not "learn war anymore." Instead, they will "beat their swords into plowshares."(Isaiah 2:4) God will bring an end to all injustice and suffering. The Bible promises: "[God] will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things [ including today's injustices and sufferings] have passed away."--Revelation 21:3,4. The scriptures also provides a hope for the dead. The Bible Teaches: Most people who have died will be resurrected. Jesus promised that "those in the memorial tombs will ...come out." (John 5:28,29) In harmony with God's original purpose, those resurrected as humans will have the opportunity to live on a paradise earth. (Luke 23:43) This promised future includes perfect health and everlasting life for obedient humans. The Bible says: " The righteous themselves will possess the earth, and they will reside forever upon it."- Psalm 37:29.

Just think of the happy prospect that the promise of the resurrection opens up for those who have lost a loved one in death! This knowledge also makes it easier to bear the pain that we experience when losing a close friend or relative in death.

I would like to give my deepest sympathy for your loved one. If you read Revelation 21:3&4, it will give you a wonderful hope for the future. That is a promise from Almighty God Jehovah.

To the family and friends of Daniel I am so sorry for your lost I know that in you time of sorrow I would like to leave you a comforting message from the bible at Revelations 21:4 it reads And he will wipe every tear from their eyes and death will be no more neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore I hope this is comforting to you in this time
