So sorry for your loss. As you know I work in a nursing home and have seen many sad situations where someone passes completly alone. Their family has never visited them or if they do it is only for short periods of time. I am happy for both you, your family and your father that you remained in his life and were able to continue on with memories and a family bond. I am sorry if that sounds inappropriate, sometimes I can't write what I mean. I am truely sorry for your loss.
