Losing a loved one can be so overwhelming, I'm sorry you have to go through this. Someone once told me, "Death is not extinguishing the light, it's merely the beginning of a new dawn." May you find peace in this statement and know he's at peace and looking over you all. Bev, your phone will ring - that's one of the things that happen often. Barb, be strong and feel his support and love when you need it.
