Second generation American Swed here - my paternal grandfather came over in his early teens with his parents. I can not recall the Yr though I have it written down somplace.
He ( my grandfather ) refused to teach his 9 children his native tongue because being a proud new American he wanted them to learn English | |

I can see and respect his ( grandfather's ) desire to do what he thought was best for his children as a new American. I DO wish that my Dad knew the language and would have been able to hand that to us  | |

 expat swede here, not really a proper one, since I only ever lived in sweden for the first 2 years of my life, but since I am still a swedish citizen and my family still only do things like christmas the swedish way, I'm more at home with those things than australian traditions.
Folks in the street in stockholm ask me for directions when I am there and I have no idea  | |

Hejsan! Kul att äntligen se ett annat svenskt fan! Hold up - you asked if there were any other Swedish ORGERS, and I am...just not a Prince fan anymore.  Came for the man, stayed for the friends. Now I'm barely here at all, the place gets boring after a while just like most places be they cyber or real. The friends I still got though.

When I was little, (about 30 years ago!) I used to love going to Sears because they had a candy counter and I'd get some swedish fish. By St. Boogar and all the saints at the backside door of Purgatory! |
