Translation of a letter from the Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson
 | Our sages say that Jacob never died alive. What is the message to us and can we reconnect to our deceased loved ones?

This is so beautiful and comforting. To have this perspective is such a gift. Thank you so much for posting this.

If memory lives, then so do those remembered.

If what the Rebbe said is correct then how does that reconcile with reincarnation and the soul coming back to a different body with its own family of loved ones?

The soul is comprised of 613 components. Each of these components is "rectified" by the fulfillmint of one of the 613 mitzvot. Any of these components which have not been rectified in one lifetime must come once again in another body in order to be rectified. The parts of the soul which were rectified proceed to their reward in the Garden of Eden -- and maintain a connection to that lifetime, and their loved ones.
