Lots of truth here! Each of the parents has their own unique role to fill in a household. When one, such as your father, are unfortunately taken away it is a very large void in a household. I am sad that you lost your father at 20 but there is another good aspect to that as well though, that you were thankfully 20 years old and not 10. You are more aware and matured to be able to handle some of those responsibilities at that age, even if you aren't aware of it yourself.

Thanks for sharing, despite the sad part of your father passing away!
