May 12, 201115 yr If you know a man named Jim, he had trouble seeing and usually had a Thai boy with him to help him navigate through the streets. He is always hanging around Sunee Plaza and has lunch and dinner at Mr. Z's Salt and Pepper restaurant almost daily. I don't know the funeral arrangements yet but I have been told his dear friend is helping with the arrangements. As soon as I know more, I'll let you know. Jim was always friendly and happy and despite his Diabetes taking away so many things in his life, he kept going on and moving forward and spending time with the great guys in Pattaya. He will be missed. RIP Jim
May 12, 201115 yr Mr. Z of Salt and Pepper Restaurant has said he will be posting a sign with the funeral information for Jim's funeral as soon as it becomes available. The cremation will be taking place at the wat across from Sukhumvit and Pattaya Thai (near Big C). Jim had been one of Mr. Z's best customers through the years, and Mr. Z. in turn was very kind to Jim. Jim was a very nice man. One side note, is that his longtime companion, Oh, had recently started a good job in a restaurant. Oh, was being very conscientious in this work. I guess Oh realized that the time had come to move on.
May 12, 201115 yr I have seen Jim and his companion many times in the Sunee area but only had a chance to speak with him once, just two months ago at Ouds. A very nice man. I never realized that he was so ill.
May 13, 201115 yr God Rest His Sole. Did you mean "God Rest His Soul?" Otherwise, it reminds me the name of new movie on Asiaboyfeet.com...

May 13, 201115 yr Author Jim's temple ceremony will be on May 14 2011 Saturday (tomorrow) at 16:00. Should be be there about 1 hour before if possible. Temple name is Tham Sa Makke . Located right at the Sukhumvit and South Pattaya road intersection. Coming from Bangkok you usually turn right to enter the South Pattaya road but for the temple you have to turn left on the light signal.
