I don't know if you are a person who believes in an afterlife, but I do and feel he is spending time with your daughter in one way or another. Even without a sense of the afterlife...I find it comforting to know that my loved ones live in my genes, my heritage, and my way of being. Punk will get that too, and in that way, your father will always live.
Believe me, you have my sympathy, and if you want it, my faith. Loved ones I've lost live strong in me, and it gives me comfort the vast majority of the time. Better yet, all the bad things tend to go away over time, leaving a gentle and comforting residue. Sadness can also be a form of strength.
