My Dad died 11 years ago yesterday. I didn't have brothers or sisters to "help" with the before, during and after of his passing. Not sure what I would have done without my wife to get through everything!
My Dad was a quiet man and didn't talk much. I wish he had. After his passing I found out what a WWII hero he was. I inherited his locker that, I don't think had been opened since 1945. An amazing time warp. His medals, his uniform, his flight jacket and goggles.
Full and complete flight log book that shows his plane was shot down in the Pacific....not once but twice. Once he took off from a Carrier and immediately lost power going straight down with the Carrier coming at him full speed. AMAZING I'm even here!
At this point, just be there with him and for him and tell him you love him. I wish I had done that more often.
My thoughts and prayers for you and your family.
