I'm so so sorry for your loss, rampartd.
Healing vibes on the way to you & your wife. 
Over the years I've lost many pets and it never get any easier.
I'm glad she didn't suffer. She'll be there when you get to the other side. anyway that's a belief i nurture.
I know how hard it is to lose a beloved pet, especially as sudden and unexpected as this was. I extend to you and your wife my condolences.
May sweet memories of your precious Snowball eventually bring you comfort at this sad time.
With deepest sympathy,

“We who choose to surround ourselves with lives even more temporary than our own, live within a fragile circle; easily and often breached. Unable to accept its awful gaps, we would still live no other way. We cherish memory as the only certain immortality, never fully understanding the necessary plan. ... Another cat? Perhaps. For love there is also a season; its seeds must be resown. But a family cat is not replaceable like a wornout coat or a set of tires. Each new kitten becomes its own cat, and none is repeated. I am four cats old, measuring out my life in friends that have succeeded but not replaced one another.” - Irving Townsend
I hope the holes in your hearts made by her passing are soon refilled with the happy memories of her.
