It’s an un-relatable situation for basically everyone. Regardless of how they found him, the kids would have been growing up without their parents and grandpa. I’m not sure there’s a specific way they lose their dad that would be a whole lot better than another, but the possibility of closure is definitely gone.
On the plus side, they don't have to spend a significant portion of their lives worrying about him deciding to kill them next. There is a certain amount of closure in that.
