Losing a loved one is painful. It is said that death means that God has called that person to heaven but that time is very hard for the family members and friends. Natural or sudden death of a family member or friend leaves a real pain behind and an impression on our hearts forever, but this is how life is.

It is understood how hard it is but the dead ones can never come back. All we can do is pray for them.
Below, we have listed some rest in peace sayings and quotes. These cannot decrease the pain but can definitely help a little to cope up.
