Don't feel inappropriate about it, @jamesjk1 bro. When my mom died, eight hours later I was posting about it on here. Places like BHW, where you are anonymous but have a precedent of communication with others, are a wonderful place to be able to talk about things that you can't really vocalize with family and friends who are showering you with condolences and wishes and prayers.
That being said, all my best to you and yours. If you need someone to talk to, you are more than welcome to PM.
