Oh I feel you in this one. Went through it myself. In a way we were relieved to just have it all be over, as devastated as we still were.
I've been around death a fair bunch but this one hits differently in that it's very close to home while I'm more in a position to be supportive compared to when I was a lot younger and didn't really have the mental maturity to help. And as much as you don't want to call attention to it, it's as you said, the relief that the suffering and what not will cease.
