where she is, so to speak. And they sort of know what happened.

I think it would be far, far worse never to find the body, to spend years, or the rest of your life as a parent, not knowing what happened, always hoping because there is always that distant chance she's still alive.

A boating accident on the Yellowstone River, a few weeks back, dad (a county sheriff two counties over)and daughter survived, mother drowned but was recovered the same day. The teen-aged son, was finally found yesterday 16 miles down river. I was at the river near the spot where he was finally found, on the day of the accident.
