Looks similar to my parents countertops and it's more like particle board than actual wood. Once it gets wet it swells and crumbles. My parents counter tops are probably rotted away like those because I feel the faucets is loose. If I were to fix it, I'd try to cut a piece of wood, make 3 holes, then cut out some of the bad parts of old countertop (but leaving the vinyl top layer intact). To attach the new wood to old countertop, I'd either use more wood and screw it together or find metal plates and screw that to join it together.
Looks like your dad could use a fresh bead of caulk where the counter and tile meet.
