I clearly wrote (I think) that the loss occurred on Pesach so this is not a case of yom tov stopping a shiva that had already started.

Being from eretz Yisroel should not be relevant to this case, because 7th day is yom tov for everybody, while the day after is nothing for an Israeli resident (and would be day 1 of shiva) and yom tov sheini for a chutznik (but treated as day 1 of shiva anyway)
