Cameron Diaz is mourning the loss of her father.
The actress' father, Emilio Diaz, passed away on Tuesday morning, April 15, after suffing from the flu, which turned into pneumonia, TMZ.com first reported.
The sudden death caused production on the actress's latest film, "My Sister's Keeper," to halt temporarily.
The elder Diaz, a former oil company foreman, was a resident of Seal Beach, Calif. He had a small part in his daughter's comedy "There's Something About Mary."
With his wife Billie, he had two daughters: Cameron Diaz, 35, and Chimene, 37.
