Sorry about your loss.  I know how horrible it can be.
 
What you need is this:
 
 
I hate glass thermometers!  You always have to worry about breaking them!  I have one of these titanium heaters in my 125 gallon tank in the sump.  There are several sizes from 50 to 350 watts.  It has a very nice temp controller, but I just set it to 80 max and use my Aquacontroller to actually turn it on and off.  It's doubtful that both my Aquacontroller and the heater's temp control would both fail at the same time.  This gives it some redundancy.  FWIW
