The love of a family wasn't enough to keep him home. Was he selfish to take such risks as a family man or selfless in giving his life for an adventure. He missed out on so much but I'm sure his last thoughts were of his family. Ultimately his sons were able to give him a proper goodbye.
While his wife and best friend moved to quickly in my opinion, it's clear that Conrad filled a void and clearly loved the family. What a wonderful tribute to a man who couldn't be still enough to just be a dad but ultimately was a hero to his kids. I'm sure seeing him one last time brought closure and solace to his family. He missed out on so much but hopefully his soul was able to feel and see it.
