The whole earth will eventually be brought to a gardenlike paradise state. The Scriptures say: “The wilderness and the waterless region will exult, and the desert plain will be joyful and blossom as the saffron. . . . For in the wilderness waters will have burst out, and torrents in the desert plain. And the heat-parched ground will have become as a reedy pool, and the thirsty ground as springs of water.”—Isaiah 35:1, 6, 7. My condolences.

May God comfort you at this time. I read that Bill had passed but all that could come to my mind were all of the fun chilldhood memories of when he lived just up the road from us. Precious man, precious family.
