Excellent choices. I have a favorite verse on death, and it's comforting. Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. JOHN 14: 1 - 3 NKJV
