Sorry for your loss and I feel your pain. I have been going through the challenge of letting my own fathers friends and family (whom my mother didn't care for and let fall out of touch) know that he passed.

Peace to you and your family, sounds like he had you prepared to carry on. It is what we do as fathers, try to instill skills and grit to face the day that our children must live on without us. My condolences sir!

Lost my Pop in '91. You learn to live with that loss, but it never gets easy, and he will be in your thoughts daily.
