RnR,

I'm really sorry to hear that about your partner. I know it's really hard to deal with a situation like that. A while ago I was involved in a very bad rock fall event and watched a friend get really hurt. It could have very well been me as I was standing next to him. I ran one way, he ran the other. Luckily he survived, and I forced myself to continue climbing. But the death of a partner... I know how a partner can become very close. It's so sad when something like that happens!
