You recently asked me to trust you ~ That death is not the end of life, but rather is the beginning of eternal life. How unimaginably beautiful it is, with eternal peace, far beyond anything experienced in this world.
“Your unwavering faith gives me some comfort, knowing you are in Paradise, closer to Allah. Until we meet again - May your soul rest in Jannah. Love you Brother Latz.”
