  It's one thing eventually losing your parents. Everyone does.
  But to lose a son? Thats on a whole other level of pain. I don't blame your grandfather for being distraught at that. I would of lost it too in your shoes too.
context: I work in a cell phone place and most of my clients are old
  This 85 year old came in crying one time trying to pay his bill. I asked what was wrong and with the most genuine sad eyes I’ve ever seen he said 
  “I miss my wife a lot today.” >
  
  That is just heartbreaking. >
  
  Managed to hold it together at my dad's funeral, until I saw my grandpa crying. Then I just lost it. Not an easy thing to see.
