I know you were not expecting your dad to go as quickly as he did but as you said, in some ways its a blessing. You have done so much for your dad over the course of his illness he was lucky to have you as his daughter. My condolences also to your mom, god bless her, she will certainly miss your dad after being together for so many years, and to your sisters and brother, you will all miss him so much. Take Care
