It is never easy to lose someone however there is a great deal of comfort in this recorded promise. Acts 24:15 "And I have hope toward God, which hope these men also look forward to, that there is going to be a resurrection of both the righteous and the unrighteous."  Imagine that day when all our loved ones are brought back to life through a resurrection and we can embrace them again.  How we long for that truly special day so close at hand.
