so sorry to hear about your dad. I lost my father just last month and I am also 44. the pain is still pretty raw, but I also have some great collecting memories with dad. i remember him driving my brother and I in snowstorms to the card shops because we were so excited to go.
he never collected too many cards himself, but we visited Cooperstown during induction weekend a dozen or more times and we loved collecting autographs of the different HOFers together. those memories definitely give some comfort.
hang in there.
