Cary Booker, 76, whom his son often credits with inspiring him to enter public service, died in Las Vegas after a long illness and a recent stroke.
Mr. Booker's campaign announced late in the day that he had canceled events. It was uncertain when he would resume campaigning, but some of his associates said it could be as early as Friday.
Polls have shown Mr. Booker's Republican opponent, Steve Lonegan, catching up to him — though still trailing by about 12 percentage points.
The two candidates had all but brawled in their second and final debate on Wednesday, talking over each other and arguing over who was more "extreme" in his position on abortion. (Mr. Lonegan opposes abortion rights; Mr. Booker supports them.)
Mr. Lonegan, a former mayor of Bogota, N.J., and state leader of Americans for Prosperity, a libertarian group, has run a feisty campaign. He will hold a rally on Saturday night with Sarah Palin and the Tea Party Express at the New Egypt Speedway in South Jersey.
