Colleges don’t admit you out of pity. They admit you for qualities that YOU showed in difficult circumstances : resilience, courage, drive, ability to feel and empathize, kindness.
If you can manage to speak about your dad in ways that speak about you, yes, it’s good for colleged to know that about you.
