A Sad Day 😔 · 7:52pm Dec 26th, 2017
I had found out a few minutes ago, that my father-in-law, who is the father of my brother-in-law, who is married to my eldest sister, had passed on at the age of 55 earlier today after years of battling cancer.
I never got to see him often, but every Sunday, I would see him and his wife attending the same church my family and I go to. He was a really loving and funny person to be around, and he and my brother-in-law were so much alike in personality and physical appearance. I’m going to miss him very much.
But as sad as I am that he’s gone, I’m also happy. He no longer has to fight cancer nor does he have to suffer through so much pain and misery. The best part is that he’s in Heaven, standing in the presence of Jesus where he can no longer have to worry about so much fighting.
All that’s left to do now is to hold on to the cherished memories my family and I have of him, and forever remember that we need not worry about him anymore.
Wishing you all the luck in the world right now. But this I promise: You will see him again. You and he and the rest of your family will all be together again, with perfect bodies, and won't have to worry about any more mortal troubles. There's wonderful happiness for you in store.

Thank you.
My condolences, mate. Guess we both lost someone close to us this year. All I can say is: try to stay strong. It's what your father-in-law would have wanted, just like my grandmother wanted the same for me.
