I am passing on this terrible and tragic news on Patrik I just received 
from Ola. I am still in disbelief and shock here having only seen it a 
few minutes ago, so I won't say anything else until later.

> As Patrik’s wife and now a sudden widow I felt that I need to announce 
> to everyone about the sudden tragic thing that has happened on the 
> 29th of November, that is when Patrik hastily left us during the 8-9th 
> in the morning at home in his bed by a sudden epileptic death.
>
> It has now been a month since I lost the greatest love and soulmate of 
> my life and I feel that all who haven’t already gotten to know about 
> all that has happened through me or any other closely related to 
> Patrik, should know about it now when the newspaper funeral ad in 
> Sydsvenskan came out today.
>
> The funeral ceremony will be held on the 17th of January 2014 at 14.00 
> in Limhamns chapel called Tron (faith in Swedish) the Urn will be 
> buried in the cemetery there outside of the Chapel.
>
> After the ceremony we will together walk to the restaurant Kalk for a 
> buffet and after that we dance to celebrate and reminisce about Patrik 
> and his joyful spirit with the Swing and Jazz music among other music 
> from his music collection that he used to Dj with.
>
> For those of you who want to attend to the ceremony and/or the dinner 
> and dance afterwards please contact me or Arcus funeral service before 
> the 10th of January to notify us.
>
> Dress code should be colourful cool retro swing clothes as that would 
> have been Patrik’s choice. His favourite colours where purple, yellow, 
> green, red and  blue colours. Don’t forget your dancing shoes at home, 
> cause all who knew Patrik knew that he never left home without some 
> shoes to dance in if there were any dance involved, either it was for 
> disco, salsa, tango or swing dancing
