          So sorry about your Dad.  Hope he did not suffer and my prayers are with you and your family to get through this difficult time.  Keep your family close, don't be alone, keep everyone in your family busy. Trust me…this is what kept my sanity to some extent.  Again, I am sorry about your Dad.

                I am so sorry about your father.  It is hard to lose a parent, especially to an illness.  Please know that you and your family are in my prayers.

                            Very Sorry to have had this news.  Your Father had a great supporter in you.  Try to dwell more on the good memories you have of him.  The hole that his passing leaves in your life can never be filled, but the pain will be somewhat eased with time, but never expect it to go away completely as the love you feel from him will never go away either.
