Charlotte...
I truly am sorry to hear of this news. When I read your first post, I said "Oh NO" aloud. Then I went down, and read that he passed....It brought tears to my eyes.
I know nothing I (or anyone) says can bring you comfort. I just wanted to tell you that I know what you're going thru. When I was eighteen, my Daddy died of Cancer. I am the youngest of three girls, and his "little girl", which he continued calling me up until before his death...So I was very close with him. I know how hard this is. Altough, I know it must be different when it's so sudden like that. How old was your Dad, if you don't mind me asking??
You, and your family are truly in my thoughts.
((((((HUG FOR YOU))))))
