Unhappy I need your prayers please

This morning, my father was found dead in the basement of our house. He had a plastic bag over his head and had committed suicide. I have been living here since graduating college as my mother needed my help. My parents had just become divorced in November, and my mother had let him stay through the holidays. He was suppossed to move out today. My mother found him, and it just doesn't seem like its real. They were married for 31 years, and this is extremely hard for all of us. He was a priest for several years and we just don't know how he could have done this. There was a lot going on in his life that nobody knew about, as he was extremly secretive with our family and especially my mother. Nothing seemed out of the ordinary last night, and this is just a huge shock to us all. I welcome anyone who would like to pray for our family. THank you.
