I am sending my condolence to you and your family in the death of your loved one, Melanie Mohawk. There is hope for our dead loved ones in the Bible at John 5:28-29 & Rev. 21:4. For more upbuilding information for families, individuals and children go to JW. ORG. When there you can download a copy of the publication "When Someone You Love Dies". It was a great help to me.
My deepest sorrow goes out to your family at the loss of such a beautiful talent! I still recall poems and essays written by Melanie in her high school English classes with me. Peace to her now and forever.
