Thank you all for your comments. Very much appreciated. I came back to San Antonio last night. His service was beautiful. I did not know my father was so popular. The church was packed and there was people outside that did not fit. Ive never given or been given so many hugs in my life. People showed so much support. It was beautiful to see so much family together. Including my mother, my grandparents had 14 kids. My father has 3 sisters. It was an amazing experience. It certainly made it a lot easier than I thought it would be. We were all very sad and deffinetly hurting a lot. But I know that my pain does not compare to that of my grandmother's. I understand that in life, a son (well, 2 sons, me and my brother) is suppossed to bury his parents. It is a natural part of life. But my grandmother buried her son and her pain is beyond what we could understand.
