Siri, 5, was killed in the head-on collision outside Halmstad.
The tribute text to his father has been shared by thousands.
“We tried to fill the void with all the good memories and laughs you gave us. writes the father.
Siri, 5, was killed in the frontal collision 20km north of Halmstad on Thursday night. She was traveling with her father and year-old siblings on the way to their home in Oskarström when suddenly another car came straight up to them.
One vehicle was thrown into a stable, the other driven into the ditch on the other side. Siri did not survive.
The next day, the five-year-old boy was mourned throughout the Halmstad region. Pain was mixed with anger after the driver of the approaching car, a man in his 50s, blew positive.

The father’s words about the daughter.
More than 2000 shares
Through the grandmother, the family has given Aftonbladet permission to publish Siri’s name and photo, so that the tragedy does not become a number in the statistics.
On his Facebook page, the father talks about how the vehicle suddenly headed straight for them.
“My beloved little Siri, you have left us forever” the 29-year-old writes.
“I did everything I could to try to stay alive, but one man decided to get in the affected car and drive awfully fast on our side of the road and finally extinguish your wonderful little life that you had to start.”
Dad’s first Facebook post on Friday morning, featuring a photo of Siri sitting in a pink toy car, received 7,000 reactions, 2,600 comments and nearly the same number of shares 16 hours later.
Tributes to the daughter
“You leave me with an emptiness that cannot be described. It was always you and me every day” writes the father.
I will miss your warm hugs when you met me at the door, your insanity and your ideas about everything. You wanted Dad to stop working so we could sell ice cream together so we could be together all day. “
On Friday, many on social media expressed great anger at the alleged drunk driver. The father preferred to remember Siri’s cheerfulness and frankness, which meant that he often had long conversations with strangers and left a happy impression on everyone he met.

“Anger doesn’t help”
“We alternate between anger and sadness, but especially emptiness and tears”, write, but add:
“Anger doesn’t help us get our little princess back, so we try to fill the void with all the good memories and laughs you always gave us.”
Siri’s grandmother pays tribute to rescue personnel on Facebook.
I would like to heartily thank all the staff at the accident site, a big thank you to the wonderful police who followed us all night with great empathy and conveyed factual information with great compassion. Thank you with all my heart even though it was broken. “ she writes.
A woman in her 60s who was sitting in the other car also died in the accident.
