Deaths CAN be a great inconvenience, and nobody implied choice but you. It sucks when people die, and impacts can vary with connection.

It is more honest to the dead to honor and state your real loss. A dead human can be both a loved one and teacher to different people, depending on the connection. This person didn't lose a lover, they lost a teacher, and that matters too.

You don't even need to have liked someone to have lost something when they die
