Closure for a mate?

Granted, we may not know exactly how budgies technically feel, but if you'll allow, any opinions would be appreciated (or perhaps some of you have experienced either option before and could share what you learned).

If you've done all you can do for a bird (vet care, quarantine, ect..), and it passes, do you think it's better for the mate in the other room to see the body lying in the dead mate's cage or is it better for the other bird not to see anything at all (and wonder where he is, calling out for days for him) ?

What is more "humane" for the surviving bird?
