    It is sad that the very same thing (sea) he loved so much, ultimately took his life. My condolences to his family, fellow seafarers and friends. May he rest in eternal peace.

    To the family of Oscar Bruno, your only responsibility now is to live in the spirit on his behalf.

    The idea about “resting in peace” and to forget about our loved ones, as time goes, is a bad mistake of the World.

    As human beings, our soul leaves our body; it is a transition of Life from the physical to the spiritual; our determination has to be that when we leave our body with a soul of Light (Life of Love in Christ Jesus), if not we go with a soul of darkness, dead to the Light–this is a sorry situation.

    That is why it is so important that those of us who remain alive should remain in intercession on behalf of our loved ones–that is if we ourselves are Lighted with Jesus, in Love

    It is also a mistake that some of us are making a mistake as we go boasting “it is my life, so I will live as I please” but is that so?

    People Jesus wants you in Life with Him, without that move, your soul is dead–do not go to the grave with that condition

    “May his soul rest in peace” is the talk of human wisdom with no meaning to it.

    The Bible speaks about a rich man and a poor man named Lazarus whom that rich treated badly.

    They both left their body, which was sent to a grave for eternal perish, but did the soul of the two men go to rest in peace? The story of the Bible said no. And I say it boldly, absolutely not! Praise God!

    I have personal experience of that truth through my son who passed away in July 2017-it was a very painful thing for me.

    But God showed me that I didn’t have to grieve any longer because of the loss of my son; He sent him back to me through his physical image; we have been in a spiritual relationship since April 2019.

    So “rest in peace” means nothing, the souls who left with a soul of LIght (the Life of Love in Jesus), are waiting for the call to join Him in Paradise.

    But those who left without the Light are now lost souls in the “Spirit World”–so sad!

    The untimely death of a productive young man is particularly hard to accept. May God give his family and friends much solace in this time of their bereavement. May his soul reside in perpetual tranquility.
