"But they which shall be accounted worthy to obtain that world, and the resurrection from the dead, neither marry, nor are given in marriage:" Luke 20:35 KJV
"Neither can they die any more: for they are equal unto the angels; and are the children of God, being the children of the resurrection." Luke 20:36 KJV
If one is counted worthy to make it into heaven, then based on the scripture all physical earthly or fleshly ties will not manifest in the spiritual realm. We will know Jesus, and we will know our loved ones however their earth status or bond of being a father, mother, sister, brother, etc. will not translate in heaven. (I believe for instance that I will be able to recognize that this was my parent or sibling on earth and that I will still understand and know who this soul is).
This is a good and fair question to ask.
However the main thing is to make sure you are accounted worthy to make it into heaven otherwise you won't see your loves ones. Once a believer is in the presence of God everything will be well, try not to focus on those that have gone before us, our time will come and let that time happen in its natural course. Focus on working on qualifying to make it into heaven and see God's face in peace. God is the one who blessed us with our loved ones in the first place. If it wasn't for God we wouldn't even have had the loved one we had. God blessed us, look to Jesus.
"Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling." Philippians 2:12 KJV
1 John 3:1-2 reads "Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is."
"we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is."
James I believe we will be able to know and see one another the same way Christ does.
Perhaps from another dimension that we can't comprehend in these bodies.
People ask this question a lot. It seems they are very concerned about greeting their loved ones in heaven. Maybe we will or maybe we won't but one thing is for sure - we will know Jesus.

Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. 1 John 3:1-2.
Two points worth mentioning.
1) Beloved, "now" are we the sons of God, ( Present tense!)
2) but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; When Christ appear for his purchased possession we shall be like him. Incomprehensible!
