Death: The loss of your loved one, and the sense of relief you have attained is nothing to be ashamed of. Life goes on, there is a better place we will all go one day. God gave you you life to continue on and do good for others you may meet. Happy life, a new start.

Reactions: This does not make you a horrible person. But if there are unresolved issues or feelings - you might want to work through them.
