The title made me wonder "what lesson"?

The "hook". Notice how this line stands alone. And the direct concise way of writing.

Consider the author's choice of words: "tearing through".

The linkage to "lessons", i.e. even in death the deceased was still in a position to teach others.

Overall comments: The writing is in sequence but the use of white space, the logical sequence and insertion of commentaries/ reflection - the flow just makes the reading continue to the end.
