I am so sorry, it's so hard to lose our furry family members, they are very much our family and their loss affects us so much.  Man or not, tears often come with loss/grief.  My son also is non-demonstrative but when his stepdad passed, he would wake up crying, cry at work, only time in his life besides losing our dogs and cats.  I wish I knew some way to console you, but I only know when I've suffered loss to let the tears flow and it takes time to adjust, time to heal.  I'm so sorry.

Oh no, I am so so sorry for your sudden loss.  It's totally normal to cry - let it out. And you will miss her so so much. We all know what you are going through. Please come back and write if it helps you. It takes time to grieve.
