For anyone interested, funeral services will be held for Peder on Monday Tuesday and Wednesday. The venue has been changed to Wat That Thong. It is located on Sukhumvit, next to the Ekamai BTS station. Peder will be in room 13. A buddhist service will begin there on each of those days at 6:30 PM.
The cremation is scheduled for Thursday at 2:00 PM. The ceremonies will begin at 10:00 AM, and the final chanting will be at 12:30 PM. The actual cremation will be at 2:00 PM. People are free to arrive at any time before 2:00 PM.
All of the funeral arrangements have been paid for. Special thanks to Ton Thong Restaurant, Hillary Bar & Ball In Hand, Moonshine Bar, and the Friends of Soi 22 for doing that. Any donations can be made directly to his wife and son at the funeral. Wassana (Moonshine) and I have created a fund with donations that have already come in to help the family with the educational expenses for Peder's son.
After the cremation, I and several others will return to Moonshine, where we can all share "Peder" stories and bid him a last farefell. All are invited, and Heineken will be on draught. We will be there directly after the cremation, but I would expect that people will be arriving intermittently all day (and well into the night)to drink toasts to Peder's memory and share those memories with others that were a part of his world.
The games scheduled for week 4 have NOT been cancelled. Those wishing to attend any of the funeral services are free to do so. If it should become neccessary, everyone is free to postpone their match and re-schedule it to a more convenient time.
