Good project!
I'd like to offer a suggestion that worked well for me. Get a small spiral bound notebook - the kind that will fit in your shirt pocket - to write reminder notes in. When you think of something your Dad told you, jot a reminder down. Get a bigger notebook to keep in the house to further expand those reminders. You'll think of hundreds of things to jot down that will jog your memory many years later. Had you not written down a little reminder about that certain incident, it would possibly be lost forever. You don't have to write the whole story immediately that way - I'm still writing about incidents that happened years ago, and they're just as interesting today as they were then.
As far as what to do with it when you're done - that may be for someone else to figure out, but the important thing will be getting it written down.
