Somebody is only pretending to be sorry our father is dead

I think there is something missing between sorry and our father.What do you think ?

You can put the word "that" between "sorry" and "our", but it's completely unnecessary to do so.

Except that the sentence has no period at the end, it's perfectly correct.
