A bit late to the party, but this might be useful.

My cellular phone usage is similar to your dad's, mostly for 
emergencies. I live about 25 miles from Williams at the end of a dirt 
road. Based on recommendations from others and some research, I ended 
up with a Tracfone because of coverage in rural areas. For a while I 
was running all over northern Arizona between Truxton and Flagstaff 
from I-40 north to the Colorado River. Tracfone must buy services from 
just about every company because there was always coverage when regular 
cellular phones, e.g., Verizion or AT&T, had service.  Minutes last for 
90 days and you can purchase an extension for a year.
