So very sorry to hear this. You don't say so but I am getting the feeling he ended his own life.
My STBX killed himself last September. I had moved out almost a year before. We were still legally married so I had to deal with it all. I never felt any guilt - he was bipolar and not treated and he really went off the rails.
This will still be a difficult time for you even though you don't have to deal with the day to day fall out. Your children will have a bad time too. Get some counseling for them and yourself. It is ok to feel relief - I certainly did and I feel alot safer now. It is nice to know I will never run into him again.
Try and get some peace about it although that will take awhile. It is a real body blow. Be patient with yourself. You are in shock right now.
You will be in my prayers.

I wish I could give you a hug right now.
I'm sorry for your loss, your childrens' loss, for everything that happened that shouldn't have and didn't happen that should have.
18 years is a very long time. Be gentle with yourself while you grieve.

I am so sorry. I think many of us here get how you feel, I think I would feel very similarly.
Hugs to your children.
