It is a sad day for the whole Church of Christ, but as what Bro. Erano Manalo, Ka Erdy always quote "To live is Christ, to die is gain". Truly, he lived a life in Christ and spending all of it in the service of God. His memories will stay in our hearts until we meet the Lord.

Yes, but Jesus explained it in verse 10.

Response to God in relation to Jesus in diff. translation

 

John 14:10 "Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I speak I do not speak on my own. The Father who dwells in me is doing his works."

So the Father is in Jesus. He dwells in Jesus. Clearly he made Jesus his main dwelling, so therefore those who saw Jesus, saw the Father through him. But still they are two different beings. Jesus clearly distinguished between himself and the Father, both in this verse, and also in the verse you quoted, verse 7. There he called the Father "my Father". Therefore 2 beings, Jesus and his Father.
