I am so sorry for your loss. My life partner committed suicide almost 5 years ago so I can identify with what you are going through. When you get past the initial shock and are able to, please let us know how you are doing. You will be having a lot of conflicted feelings, and you should honor them but not be consumed by them. Know that we are here for you and don't hesitate to talk with people you trust and/or a therapist about it as much as possible. DOn't stuff your feelings. I did and it just prolonged my own agony. Keep in touch when you can.


peace and love,
