I am making a photo story book on shutterfly about my sister. She has cancer and there is nothing more they can do. What are some good Bible verses, quotes and sayings about death and comfort that I could put down?

People do not die for us immediately, but remain bathed in a sort of aura of life which bears no relation to true immortality but through which they continue to occupy our thoughts in the same way as when they were alive. It is as though they were traveling abroad. ~Marcel Proust
Because I could not stop for Death,
He kindly stopped for me.
The Carriage held but just ourselves
And Immortality
~Emily Dickinson
'Tis very certain the desire of life prolongs it. ~Lord Byron
Whether you think you can or think you can't - you are right. ~Henry Ford

Courage is the power to let go of the familiar. ~Raymond Lindquist
I'm sorry for your sister's ailing health but I will be praying for your family.

"MANY OF LIFE'S FAILURES ARE PEOPLE WHO DID NOT REALIZE HOW CLOSE THEY WERE TO SUCCESS WHEN THEY GAVE UP"-----I believe it is by Thomas Edison, really motivating.
