My stepfather passed away this morning

[JTFFan]

May G-d bless your stepfather. He is in a better place with HaShem now. My grandfather also died last month, as my mom and I took as best as care of him as we could.

May he rest in peace.  May G-d grant you and your family strength and solace during this period.

I am very sorry for your loss.
May God rest his soul.
I will pray for you and your family.

ברוך דין האמת

I am so sorry to hear this, Mo.

But remember that just as you and your mother love your stepfather, G-d also loves him. Your stepfather has now entered the real world, the world of truth and justice and love and righteousness. The physical world that we live in is like a passing dream, an illusion. The real world is the kingdom of Hashem.

Take care of your mother. Be extra kind to her, and reassure her that your stepfather is in a much better place. Reassure her that Hashem loves your stepfather, and that He will be good to your stepfather.

Thank you all for your kind words. May we merit the coming of Moshiach B'mheira V'yameinu (speedily in our days).

Will the pain ever go away?

[arksis]

Mo, my heart goes out to you! You have my sincerest condolences.

No, the pain NEVER goes away. It lessens with time, but never goes away. You will find ways to ease your pain, I hope you have others there to help you get through this, it's very difficult, I won't lie to you.

Condolences Mo. I agree with arksis that the pain never really goes away when you lose someone you care for. However it does change over time and life will be brighter for you eventually as you go through the grieving process.
