Kristy, that is freaking bizarre, what a whack job..but I know we occasionally fall for the whack job... That is sad about your dad,, would he ever consider going to a counselor to talk about what he is feeling and going through? If you suggested it or set it all up for him.. and just told him when to go? Think he would do that.. that is a lot to deal with, having to work together, been there, not pleasant..
Sounds like he needs to talk to someone other than family about why he is feeling bad over loosing someone that would treat him like that. Hope it works out..
Your Dad and I have the same birthday.
