There are a million ways to work towards closure and most people try and find one that works for them. They may simply ignore the issue until time dulls its memory. They may scream and cry it out. They may end relationships, avoid conversations, avoid certain places or music. Most of those are just symbols of closure though and ways to make it easier, because in the end a person gets over something because they suck it up and just do.
Please remember you can lead a horse to water but you can’t make it drink.
You can tell a person the rational, complete truth a million times, but until they accept it there is absolutely nothing you can do or help with. No one can give anyone else closure. In my experience, most of the time when people try to it only reopens wounds and causes more grief. Acceptance and the choice to move on is just that, a choice. Until a person finds something inside and makes the choice to let it go, nothing you do will have any effect at all. Even after the choice is made, the issue might linger, but it's on it's way out.
Some people, for some reason, just like to obsess. Or else, don’t know how to do anything else. You might as well howl at the moon for all the good reassuring them does.
