My deepest sympathy to you, your mom and all, for loss of your dad. I lost mine a quarter century ago. Him at 90 years and 'time'. The pain has long melded into great memories. But I do understand one facet of going through such loss. "Time outs". Needing to pause for some bit of normalcy such as here, a quick gun blog. Some kind of parachute to remove if only temporarily from the many obligatory factors & details... At least this, unlike my 'chute' of old... Doesn't leave a hangover!
Please get back IF AND WHEN convenient.
God bless you all. Take special care of your mom! And... may He welcome your father!
John
