So sad for the families and the congregations . I pray our sisters and brothers who were related to them and through the faith are able to endure the grief they will encounter.
One Sunday after the meeting a young 18 year old brother, Ryan, got hit by an 18 wheeler and died soon after and none of us could hardly talk without breaking down for a year. Time eases the pain but the immediate family is having a tough time still.
We have the comfort from the scriptures and we know he will return. We still miss our loves ones though.
The scriptures remind us that time and circumstance befall us all. That means stuff happens to everyone. Make each day count as if it were your last.

That is truly sad, I hope that the families and friends of those dear brothers are comforted by the fact that these faithful people are safe in Jehovah's memory. May Jehovah God spirit strengthen the family at this terrible time.

Yes. We alone of all earth’s creatures were made in God’s image. Because of this we have the capacity to appreciate what death is all about. That is why we also have the capacity to mourn another’s loss of life and the desire to comfort bereaved ones. May Jehovah comfort the victims' families in this hour of great sadness.

It is all on the news websites with videos. What is really bad is that most of the websites has places where you can make a comment. Apostates are using these comments to trash the lives of these bothers and their ministry.

i hadn't heard of it. the story did give a nice witness of how those brothers were helping in the building of kingdom halls. i am very said about it but it does show unforeseen occurrences befall us all. thankfully those families have the congregation to lean on in this horrible time.

Tragic! My thoughts and prayers are with them.
I am not a JW.

that is so sad it makes me cry. What about their families?
What happens to their children now? They don't have a father.
