now I don't have a father anymore
I am so sorry. That is devastating, loss of a parent. Very hard, and changes you, I think forever.
Not having photos...I didn't have many either, so I compensated by drawing pictures of scenes I remembered. You draw well. I don't, and yet, the process let me 'own' those memories in a way that photos would not.
My condolences to you and your family. At least your daughter got to spend some precious time with him.
Thank you @agmoore for the condolence 😊. Putting the memories on a paper is indeed a good idea. It's even more personal than taking pictures. Maybe I'd try that out.

That's true. It was good that he had spent few quality days with his only granddaughter happily.
It seems that those days gave quite a big impression in my daughter's heart, cos she was also very sad and cried when I told her that her grandpa passed away.

I think the first time children experience death is the true loss of innocence. They get an understanding of life, and its tragic side. There is no undoing that and it is a necessary stage, sad stage.
I am sorry🌈
Now that you mentioned it, I suddenly thought from that aspect too.
That's true apparently.
Growing up is a good thing... but also kind of sad at the same time.
