Still NOT found...

I hate to be writing this here.... but SY is still not found. It has been 17 days. The search-and-rescue teams are still out there searching, albeit at a smaller scale. Some are still hopeful that she will be found alive. I have heard from some fellow moms that the family has somewhat accepted that she is gone from them forever. The pain for them must be unimaginable - how do you have closure in this case? Will there be a funeral? Is so, the funeral planning must be meticulous to minimize the pain and suffering of the family...
