Such a sad story and thank you for sharing. In loosing someone dear when people come to pay their respects, I have noticed that, because it is uncomfortable, they become a "chatty kathy". When actually, what we need is a friend to stand by us and just be there. As in the case of suddenly loosing my child as a teenager, I was standing by the casket and wondered how his face would feel to the touch. I just couldn't bring myself to touch it but a good friend noticed and touched his face and said that it felt very natural and soft. This meant the world to me at that moment in my zombie state. I hope you will reach out to people as they want to be there for you they just don't know how.
