KhunDon Posted May 22, 2019 Posted May 22, 2019 I didn’t have the pleasure of meeting him, but it seems that he touched the hearts of those who did meet him. You don’t meet many people in life that can do that. RIP and condolences to his family. 4

Binlid Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 I never had the pleasure of meeting Baz, but I like many have enjoyed his posts over the years. You can be as careful as you like in Thailand as a pedestrian but can still have your life snuffed out by the horrific driving standards this country accepts as normal. RIP Sir. 6 1

I have known 5 guys here ... 1 was a good friend of mine .. he was from California ( Andrew ) .. that have been killed here in Thailand in car / motorcycle accidents .... The last time I saw Andrew ( the morning of his death ) .. I warned him again and again to be super careful on his motorcycle .... he had a big raging Ducati ... a fucking truck ran a red light and hit him ... boom ... finished .. he had a beautiful wife and a young child .... the thought of it still brings tears to my eyes .... I just could not understand or endure the pain his wife went through .. she just cried and cried in my arms ... For sure .. there are people crying now over Baz's death .. what a waste of a good human life .... Thailand not so bad to drive ( yea ... fucking crazy ) .. try China, India and Vietnam ...

nampla69 Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 So sad last night when Larry and Phil told me ...one of the people whose company I enjoyed most. Just a lovely guy and so polite and friendly every time you met him. We used to debate goulash recipes ..... and best drinks places in Budapest. He had worked in war zones and in some of the most dangerous places on earth and was happy living a quieter life in Koh Chang. So sad RIP ...another gone ... 6 1
Popular Post misteregg Posted May 23, 2019 Popular Post Posted May 23, 2019 His body has been taken to Bangkok for autopsy which is normal for accidents to a foreigner.His body is expected to be released in 4-5 days and then returned to Ko Chang for memorial or whatever his family wishes. Phil 6 5

SteveB Posted May 23, 2019 Posted May 23, 2019 Really sad & shocked by the news, We had some great conversations when I was in town and a truly nice guy. RIP dear Sir.
Evil Penevil Posted May 24, 2019 Posted May 24, 2019 (edited) I counted Baz as a good friend and I know many others did as well. He was indeed one of the nicest guys you could ever meet as well as a top-notch photographer and Web designer. He was simply in the wrong place at the wrong instant, crossing the street when hit by a speeding motorbike. It's a tragedy that brings home just how fragile life is.

KWA Posted June 3, 2019 Posted June 3, 2019 It's been posted over on Secrets so hope it's OK to post here too, there will be some sort of memorial for Baz in Le Pub at 8:00pm on Thursday this week, 6th June. His wife and son will be attending so a good opportunity to let them know how well he was thought of. 6
misteregg Posted June 4, 2019 Posted June 4, 2019 Yes, it’s been organized by his friend Frosty from Pattaya Talk forum. Happy for any of Baz’s friends to join us. 2
