I want to thank everyone for your thoughts and well wishes, they are truly appreciated! I did travel to Indiana, I really felt like my mom and sister, especially my mom, needed my support. My older brother flew in from Florida too. He did a wonderful thing and rented a big house off Airbnb for our family to stay in together and stocked it with food. So my mom, sister, brother, and I along with our sister-in-law and her kids were able to just stay there together and we all just stayed there together and nobody had to go anywhere. We spent the week together, just being there, relaxing, sharing stories, crying, and even laughing.
While I was in Indiana, my oldest son and daughter-in-law had a baby! My first grandchild! He was a few weeks early, but plenty big and healthy! It feels a bit weird to be a grandma, but I'm sure I'll get used to it!

Your update is heartwarming that your family was able to find such comfort in each others' presence during such a tragic loss.
And congrats on the first grand baby! I got my first one too about a week ago.

What a great idea for you all the be together in the house and not have to go anywhere. I am so sorry this happened, it must have been a huge shock to everyone.
Congratulations on the new baby, that must be a light in an otherwise heartbreaking time.
