I am sorry to hear of your loss, but do your best to remember good times you shared.
My dad was an electrician. When I bought my house in 2000 he came over to help me wire up some new lights in the basement. I was so afraid of electricity and getting it wrong that he 'supervised' me, making me do all the actual work to overcome my fears. He put two switches in out of a logical (to me) order. He said he did it so I'd either change them myself (and get more practice) or remember him every time I turn on the wrong light.
For 18+ years now, I keep turning on the wrong light and laugh at us both. I still remember him fondly for that lesson and memory. I hope you have a memory of your dad that stays with you, too, so when the pain of today is done the memory (and I hope a laugh) will be there forever.
My friend take a break if need be, grieve, remember,heal. I cannot say how much pain you may be in but know that you got people who care, who will help mend this wound. Time will heal but ultimately a scar will be left. My condolences...
Do look after yourself.
Much love to you and your family.
RIP good sir
