A JW relative of mine died last month. I believe he was 80 years old. He knew he was going to die and said all his goodbye to family and friends. Preaching to us at the end to either go back to Jehovah or stay in the org so he can see everyone in paradise.
A service was held at the KH and the speaker at the end of the JW informecial for paradise invited all friends and family to the grieving widows house.
The sister-in-law of the deceased was asked by her nephew (he's an elder) to leave the home because she was df'ed probably over 30 years ago. I couldn't believe it. She couldn'tbelieve it!
She left very upset telling off her nephew that God would never forgive him for this.
I believe my aunt wouldn't have minded that she was there in her home but since her son is an elder she left the decision to him. The only reason I did not get kicked out is because I am not disfellowshipped. Not that I was particularly happy about being there.
I know my cousin did not want me there. Quite of people saw this incident thank goodness for my aunt's emotional outburst.
Just another example of the JW love for one another and the rest of the world.
30 years! Unbelievable! You would think they would try and give a good witness to her and let her stay and see how wonderful and loving they are with the hope that she'll return since we are so close to the last days.
MY immediate family was more sensible about it and agreed they should not have made her leave. Instead they should have told her before hand that she was not welcome in their home. At least that would have saved her some embarrassment.
