Gaybutton Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 An announcement has been posted on the Gay Ting & Tong Forum that Gwm4asian has passed away. See: http://www.gaytingtong.com/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=7903 I am shocked and quite upset about this. Many of us knew him (photos are on the post) and he was one of the most likeable and charitable people I've ever met. He also did an enormous amount of work for Pattaya Street Kids ( http://www.pattayastreetkids.org ). I would recommend a donation to Pattaya Street Kids, if you wish, in honor of him. He would be most pleased with that. My condolences to his friends and family. I will really miss him. Quote
TotallyOz Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 This is very sad news indeed. He was a great man who did many great things for those on Pattaya. RIP Quote
Guest fountainhall Posted April 27, 2011 Posted April 27, 2011 I did not know him but will happily send a donation as suggested. I can think of no better way to spend the last years/decades of one's life than bringing joy to lives of young underprivileged children and to helping them rise beyond the poverty of their birth. GWM4asian clearly had a huge heart which radiated so much love. That example should be one of his legacies, as well as an example to us all. RIP. Quote
Gaybutton Posted April 30, 2011 Author Posted April 30, 2011 I received the following information this morning: ______________ The memorial service and cremation for Richard Bunn will be held on Tuesday, May 3, 2011 at 1:30pm at Wat Chai on Pattaya Tai next to Center Condo. Quote
baobao Posted May 2, 2011 Posted May 2, 2011 As the new school terms begin this month this would not only be a fine tribute to Richard but a timely donation for the Pattaya Street Kids Support Project. I've personally been involved with the charity for the last few years myself and have found them to be the best I've ever seen at actually getting the funds to where they're supposed to go instead of being lost to the black hole of "administrative" costs. I like to say we can't save the world, but we can save little pieces of it. GWM4asian did his part, and I'll continue to do mine. If you're curious, the link's below. Rest in peace, Richard.
