    Sentimos mucho la perdida de su ser querido por eso queremos compartir con ustedes el consuelo que Dios nos da mediante las escrituras. Por ejemplo Dios nos promete que muy pronto acabará con la muerte, en Revelación o Apocalipsis 21:4 dice que "Dios limpiara toda lágrima de los ojos y la muerte no será más". Y en Hechos 24:15 dice que "va ha haber una resurrección". Entonces podemos ver que nuestro amoroso padre Jehova Dios tiene el poder y el deseo de acabar con toda la maldad y el sufrimiento y les devolverá la vida a nuestros seres queridos que hayan muerto. Todos deseamos disfrutar de estas promesas.

    Dr. Francisco Javier Márquez Rojas. A dad, a husband, a brother, a friend, my grandfather. The void that's been created by this loss is inexplicable. I miss him more than ever. His voice, his laughs, his yells. I even miss how he would get mad cause my lipstick was too dark. A moment I thought would never come. He was born to Dr. Ernesto Marquez Iturriaga and Celia Rojas de Marquez. My grandfather wasn't raised like many of us. I remember stories of his adolescence sounding so adventurous. He talked about his life alone in Mexico City as a young boy. He told me about how much his principle didn't like him, sounds a lot like my adolescence already (Everyone laughs because lol) He moved on to study medicine and became a prestigious dentist. One of my grandfathers bittersweet memories of his life was taking his final exam to become a doctor. He did his oral exam on the anatomy of the brain in front of a board of doctors and one particular doctor stood up and pleaded that he was wrong. My grandfather sat in silence because he knew he wasn't wrong. And he wasn't. He was never wrong. He was the only one that passed his examination in his class. His classmates threw him in a nearby fountain to celebrate his victory. He ended up getting too sick for his actual celebration and had to come back home. He did so many amazing things as a doctor, but he was an even better human being. He took care of his parents in their times of need and he was an amazing son. Which carried on to my mother who has shown spectacular fortitude in this situation. She always made sure he got the best care he could. He was also an amazing husband and this I can prove to you with the grieving words of my grandmother "siento que nada más pase un año con el de tan feliz que me hizo" And he was an amazing grandfather to my siblings and I. I can never thank him enough for the love and care and time he spent with my brother. He was my brother's best friend. My grandfather&a
