No words can ever dull the ache of such a loss; I know as I've lost two people very dear to me this last year and words, no matter how eloquently pieced together, did little.
The ultimate consolation to me was the legacy that I will carry forward: passing along to others what was taught me by those that have passed on before their time and sharing the good times with friends and family.
May God comfort you and your family during such a hellish time.
