Hey Tom,
Sorry for your loss. From what you said, he must have been a wonderful man. I think true love shows in parents when they support their children, no matter how weird, stupid, outlandish or inconvenient it is. It sounds as if your dad would have supported you no matter what you did, and that is a sign of true love and respect. Remember that always.
I look back on my own parents and how they supported me in my life. Whether it was trying to grow my hair long and start a rock n roll band, wanting to become a basketball star, and yes, even joining LXA gave them that look of "well, if you really want to do it I guess it is ok." I know they thought much of the stuff I tried was weird or foolish, but they never said so outright. They let me learn on my own and discover who I am in the process.
I think the most important thing to remember is that your dad loved and was proud of you.
