I don't know if this would make things better or worse for you (better in that it lets the memory of your sheep live on, worse in that you keep thinking about him) but have you thought about having a mental image of your sheep comfort you, like a compassionate figure? When I am sad one thing I like to do is have a mental image of a friend come alongside me and hug me and hold my hand. Your sheep could (mentally) do the same for you.
