So sorry to hear of your father's death. Never an easy time. The local coroner (England) or Procurator Fiscal (Scotland) where your father lived may be of some help with information as they will have to deal with the body coming back into the country. Thinking of you in this sad time Janet

Ann - I am so very sorry to hear of your father's death, it must be such a terrible shock. The wife of a friend died whilst on holiday in the Seychelles, apparently the staff and local consulate were extremely helpful, I'm sure Embassy or consular staff in Salzburg will be able to assist you. Thoughts and prayers are with you, take care, Sheila

I arrived at Salzburg hospital at 9.30pm on Tuesday and my Dad died an hour later. I am so glad that I decided to fly when I did. Even though Dad was unconscious I got to say goodbye and I was there for Mum. Never go abroad without good travel insurance. My parents had a motorcaraven and were insured by the caravan club. They were wonderful - sorting things out. They arranged international undertakers, someone to get the caravan and flights and accomodation for us. Everyone we met in Salzburg was so kind. Nothing seems quite real yet.... but plenty of people are rallying round and being the people we are - we are getting on with things. As Dad died abroad I understand that we have to get an order from the Home Office before the funeral can go ahead and we also have to apply for a UK death certificate. If anyone has done either of these, I would be greatful for any advice. Ann
