Well, she did! And she hung it in the closet upstairs!   

Well said.
However, thinking about it, Did that comfort him or add to his pain?
I know it broke my heart when I saw the scene. :'(

        I always thought when she said "I kept it like it was, when he was a boy"  she was saying to Ennis, if you
find the shirts, know it was him that put them in there, and kept them.  And it was always you that he loved, and I knew it, and let be. 



     Beautiful mind

The bittersweet answer to that question is that is does both.  & if that scene doesn't break your heart then you haven't got a heart.
Old Brokeback got us good and it sure ain't over

many times now, when i rewatch the movie, i stop until the reunion.

i stop the time there. because moving forward is still so painful.

if just Ennis had the courage to drop everything and snatch Jack from his all-settled-Texas life, and run somewhere, just hold it and hide together until a couple more years when homosexual couples can  be accepted ... it wouldn't have been this tragic.

At that time in their lives their children would have paid too big a price.
Thank you Heath and Jake for showing us Ennis and Jack,  teaching us how much they loved one another.
