I would say keep it, do the trigger if you want too, there is something special about having lost loved ones firearms with you while hunting.
If you are not going to hunt it, I would keep it just like your Dad had it, and mount it somewhere significant, over the fireplace man cave, out of respect and memory of your Dad.

Keep it and try to hunt with it at least once a year when the weather cooperates. I love a gun with some character and history.I don't have any of my own so I bought somebody else's and I'm giving it a good home for a while before I tear it apart and turn it into something stupid like a 22-'06 improved.

For the love of God don't molest that!
