The program host colleague Daniel Norberg highlights how popular "Loket" was.

He was really so much for so many. A completely unique program host, who on October 19, 1991, went from local TV to "Bingolotto" on TV4 and actually changed an entire TV world, he says and emphasizes the commitment to sports and community life.

"Loket" really understood how important it is to be part of something and to get to be that together.

Leif "Loket" Olsson was hailed in the program with video greetings, classic clips, and music. Olle Jönsson, singer in the dance band Lasse Stefanz, sang, among other things, "Loket's" favorite song "De sista ljuva åren" in a duet with Engberg.

Leif was worthy of all the appreciation he could get. He meant so damn much for dance music, says Jönsson in the broadcast.

"Loket" passed away on Thursday, 82 years old.
