I'm very sorry for your loss. I remember the day we euthanized and buried our collie, who was almost 15 years old. It was the first death in my family since I was born. I don't visit many burial sites, but his is one I do visit without fail.
I hope you parents get another pet. Pets are clearly a part of your family. I am very glad that my parents, especially my father, have a dog. They are near 70, and I think the dog is one of my father's main defenses against depression, which has dogged him (no pun intended) all of his life. The dog is a constant companion and source of company.
Again, I'm sorry for your loss.
