Hi guys, I made it here, staying at my brother's house right now. Going to see my dad today. It's cold here, minus 17 celsius, and lots of snow. I'll go by the local music store later in the week and see what they have. I'm gonna try and hook up with some of my musician friends here to see what they've been up to. I hope I get to do some jamming with my old buddies. I'll post more later in the week.
Play on,
Robert

never miss a chance to jam with your old mates man!![]()
Glad to hear you're with the family, Robert. I do hope you get plenty of playing time with your buddies. There have been times in my life where the guitar and music has been the best stress and emotional outlet ever.
Good luck with the family, and continued prayers are sent!

Just to let you know, my dad passed away peacefully today. I will soon go back for the funeral. Thanks for all your support, my friends.
It was so special to see him and our 2.5 year-old daughter together when I went in February (I've got it on video too). It meant so much for him, and I am so glad he got to see her while he was still strong enough.

Robert - My heartfelt condolences to you and your family. Although I am sure there are feelings of great sadness and loss, I am also certain that you feel very fortunate to have shared such valuable time with him before he passed. Thank you for sharing that experience with us, and helping each of us put into perspective, even if for just a moment, those things in life that are the most important. God Bless.
Sorry to hear Robert. From me as well, thanks for sharing your self, your family and your life with all of us. Have a safe journey both ways. I'm sure your father is on a safe journey as well.

Robert, so sorry to hear about your father. It is very hard to lose a parent, even when you've known for some time that it would come. That was the way it was with my mom. She suffered with Alzheimer's for years. It was almost a relief when she passed on, but quite difficult all the same.
Our condolences go out to you.

Robert – My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family as you prepare to travel back home. I know this is a very unhappy time for all. As you stated earlier, you have fond memories from your previous trip a few months back. Treasure those in your heart. I will continue to pray that you have a safe trip and that God blesses those near to you during this saddened occasion.

My condolences for your loss Robert. It is truly a blessing though that you made it to Sweden in time to see him and that your father got to meet his grandaughter. I'm sure that really brought him a lot of joy.
Grieve now, then in time you'll look back at all of the happy memories of him. A part of him will live on in you.
Very sorry to hear about the loss of your dad, Robert. My heartfelt condolences. Sounds like you have some great memories to hang onto, though, and those can never be taken from you. My dad has been gone since '95, but I often think of all the great times we had together. I'm sure you'll do the same.
