Give her a little space. This is devastating to her. She will need you to talk to her. Just stay close by so that when she needs someone by her side, you will be the one. It isn't you...She is just grieving in her own way.

People deal with death in different ways. Maybe she wants time to process this. The best thing that you can do for her right now is just be there for her. Right now just having someone there is a comfort, words don't have to be said. If she doesn't feel like talking, don't force her or you'll push her away. If she needs to talk, she'll let you know.

I am in a similar situation. My boyfriends father died 2 months before we started dating. I just let him do what he feels like doing. If he feels like talking, I let him talk. Usually I try to just be kind and do things like cook a nice dinner for him or buy him a card to uplift his mood because I think he is depressed but that may not be the case with your girlfriend. Just go with the flow is what I'm trying to say.

It sound perfectly normal as grief is a process that we all go through when we lose someone close to us. Shock is usually the initial phase, it just doesn't seem real, so it is not surprising she doesn't feel like talking about it as she is not ready to accept it.
The hyperlink below is an article about the stages of grief that might help you help her through her journey with dealing with her father's loss. Good luck!

Give her time alone - keep reminding her that you'll be there but there's nothing else you really can do. Just let her know you love her and you're there anytime and just leave her alone. If she needs anything, she'll come to you
