I'm so sorry! Even if your DH and his dad weren't close, it's still hard to lose a parent. Especially given the circumstances. It's not uncommon for there to be feelings of guilt - "If I had called, would that have made a difference?" Your husband may feel bad that they weren't able to heal the rift.

I don't have any great advice. Be there for your husband. Give him extra hugs. Make him his favorite dinner. If you notice a pattern of withdrawal over the next weeks/months, see if you can get him professional help. It might be nice for him to talk to someone who's an unrelated third party. I don't know how old you are (still in a university environment), but there are many community programs for assistance, and most universities offer counseling programs to the community with a sliding scale for payment.

I'm sorry to hear about your loss. I hope your husband is feeling better soon.
