Tremendous post @Arkay.It's 10:45 PM here on the East Coast, so I guess 9:45 in Memphis? I've been waiting, as have we all, to see if a confirmation will be made tonight about this being Eliza.
I'm guessing at this time we won't hear anything further tonight.
<modsnip: Do not discuss rumors
There are two little boys that in a few years will realize that whatever variation they'll hear now about how "Mommy lives right here, in your hearts" is due to the fact that some lowlife who couldn't keep it together for five consecutive minutes is the reason Mommy is gone.
I wish Eliza's parents strength. They don't look like they can bear it. I wish strength for her brother. I wish strength and some future happiness for the husband down the road.
I wish for the boys that when they grow up, they'll have each found a way to take this pain and make good lives for themselves. Grow up to be two of the good guys.
Eliza, I hope your impact in 34 years was enough to make your time on Earth worthwhile.
And with that, I will go smear my pillow with the tears now running down my face, and know you will all be here with me tomorrow as we together brace for the confirmation of the news.
