RIP Ubon Joe - ASEAN NOW visa expert

[chalawaan]

Oh! This is very sad.

 

Joe was always helpful, and never got muddy over the endless debates on here like the rest of us bored old grumps.

 

I've always wished for an obituary page on the site, but unless we are known offline to another, we're untraceable, and depart unnoticed. 

 

Anyway, many other visa experts on other forums are not youngsters either, and since it's a labour of love, when they all die off, we who remain to struggle with the various regional immigration dumpster fires will all be poorer for it.

 

RIP Ubon Joe humble helpful legend!

I've not posted on this forum for years, but had to dig out my old login details in order to add my condolences to the family of Ubon Joe. Whenever he replied to a question I had, or whenever I saw a reply by him to others I knew I could take that information to the Bank. RIP Sir, and thank you.

RIP Joe. I haven't looked at the forum for a while so I'm saddened to hear this news. Ubon Joe was a mine of information and will be sorely missed by everyone who knew him and many more people who never met him but read his posts.

Rest in Peace Joe. Sincere condolences to his family.

Just heard this sad news today. Initially in 2010 I joined these TV forums and Joe was the man. A person providing freely a much needed community service with factual no nonsense answers, advice, and help. I sincerely respected his vast knowledge and dedicated community service spirit. Many many thanks and my utmost sincere condolences to his wife, children, family, and friends.

Sad news.  He set me straight more than once that's for sure.  A great resource for visitors of all kinds.  He seemed to know everything there was to know about visas.  A true legend.  Sending my condolences to his friends and family.

RIP UBON JOE, I thought he was an eternal being, always wondering who was behind this pseudo. He was always right in his answers, very patient and helped everyone here without failing. I really hope he got well rewarded for his effort and time spent here. Hope he got the beautiful life he certainly deserved.

It feels very strange to know he is gone, no more peace of mind thinking no problem I will ask Ubonjoe. This man was a hero for all expats in Thailand...
