I can't think about it for to long or the pain overwhelms me. I have not dealt with this grief much.
I know that finding others that can understand my grief has been so helpful in my journey. So thank you everyone who shared.
@UnclesGirl Here are links to 2 articles, from PC's archives, on the subject of surviving a loved one's suicide:

Guideposts for Surviving a Loved One's Suicide

This Side of Suicide: Using the Written Word to Cope with Loss

And then I thought I would also share with you my personal favorite, among the articles in PC's archives, on the subject of grief & loss:

What My Dog Taught Me about Grief and Loss
