"Ubon" Joe helped me on countless occasions and was always prompt to reply to any problem or inquiry regarding Thai immigration. Finally good to see a picture to put with someone I regarded as a true friend. I'm back in the USA, now but I will miss him. Sorry to see this news.

RIP Joe. You will be missed 

[VirgoSG]

That is very sad news indeed.  Ubon Joe was an invaluable resource for reliable information on immigration matters for many years.  He was invariably polite, helpful and responsive, and he helped countless expats on this forum, including me.  He will be sorely missed indeed. 

Ave atque vale Ubon Joe

I hadn't seen Ubon Joe on the forum recently and wondered... 

Joe helped me personally through PM's as well as always being amazed at his knowledge of visa affairs and noticed always being respected by just about everyone here.

 

Thank you Joe

 

We are all going to miss you. 

 

RIP Joe.

Utmost respect for a true gentleman, who helped me several times. Gone too soon, but not forgotten.

It is a rare event when a thread is unanimous in its posts.

So sorry to hear this news.  He was so patient and helpful when I asked a visa question or had a problem.  He will be sadly missed.

Gosh, very sad. His knowledge of the subjects he moderated was superb and always well advised. He certainly helped me with some very nuanced or tricky scenarios.

 RIP Joe and thank you for your service to the community.

[tomazbodner]

This is a major loss for not only his family and this forum, but for the entire expat community in Thailand.

His selfless dedication to help others out of pickle, based on facts rather than hearsay will be dearly missed.

 

Sincere condolences to his family and friends.

It won't be the same without you, you will be sadly missed. Rest in Peace and Thank you.
