Sorry to hear that Mark.
I hope during your grieving period you can write a song dedicated to your dad's life.
It would be really special to have it played at the funeral along with some powerpoint photos.
I have done this twice in my life and it sure has helped me deal with grief. By the time I've finished writing and setting it to photos or video I am usually spent in the grief department. I also believe it is a way to help others grieve and deal with grief.
There is nothing wrong with grief and tears. Real men do it. And yes it is hard sometimes when grieving to watch the world still going through it's usual paces, traffic, flowers, conversations, work etc....
My favourite Psalm I have memorised for a long time that helps with grief, fear, uncertaintity is
PSALM 23
