Thanks everyone for your support. You're a great bunch, the lot of you.
I try staying strong, but every now and then I can't help but to shed tears.
Calling the hospital, crematory, family and friends of dad while trying to get some work done today is taking its toll on me.While typing this I just got a call from my sister who's just about to go see the body. By a static & noise-filled phone she asks what to tell him. Standing in the center of the agency here, through a phone-connection which seems to be able to go down any second, I've just got a few seconds to think up what I would say if I were there.
It's hard to keep my face. But dad would want me to stay strong.
Sorry to be gloomy. It's been a tough day.

shit Peter, empathy from someone who's been through it. Cliche I know but stay strong for everyone else you still have.

Sorry to hear that.
I get goose bumps everytime I hear such news.
I tend to think our beloved ones are not gone, they remain alive in us, through the memories and the impact they had in our lives.
In terms of energy, his still is here.
Be strong.

Väldigt tråkigt att höra, Peter. Att förlora någon som står nära är alltid otroligt tungt. Önskar dig all lycka och hoppas att du går stark ur det här.
Tänk på alla dom bra grejerna.
Behöver du en e-kompis att snacka med från långt där borta i Asien vet du var jag finns.

this is a beautiful request, peter .. i have heard theories of our souls or energy or 'life' getting stuck in between when we go so suddenly. i will concentrate on your pops and wish him well and trust he will be just fine.

I feel for you, man. My dad passed away just over a month ago from a sudden heart attack. He was 55. Sometimes I think it still hasen't sunk in yet. It's a reminder that none of us know how long we have on this earth.

Thanks everyone. It really means something to me since I'm miles away from my family right now.
mrdobs,
Yes, I'm in Japan with my family in Sweden. To make matters a bit more complicated Dad passed away while on vacation in Budapest.Since this was just yesterday I haven't really had a chance to find out just exactly how to bring him back to Sweden.
