I'm back in LA now, despite a rocky flight.
Time to try and get my life back into some kind of an assemblage of the slowly-congealing state of disorder it was in before last Monday and the events therein.
Again, thanks for all the support from all thsoe who gave it. I apologize for my complete lack of attempt to go back and respond, I was simply numb. Take all of the comments you see there and multiply them by about 100 and replace each one of them with a person who you have to shake hands with or hug, and you'll have some idea of what my week was like.
My father was very very loved by a very large group of people all of whom felt influenced by him, and while I understand and appreciate how much this means about his life, it slowly became a feeling like I was required to be present at all times to comfort them instead of them being there to comfort me.
It's really going to be outstandingly more difficult to accept and go on with all of this now that I'm back here and I have to go back to trying to figure out my own life. The fact that I was gone during a very important week, and will have a lot of making up to do on top of the expected pressure of the next few weeks will most likely cause me to break down at least twice.
-Do not be alarmed by my lack of verve and/or comprehension in the times to come.

I think we might've hit on something with this Abe idea. All the ideas seem to be fitting in nicely.
