R.I.P I believe Mrs Papa will continue to run it as she has done for a long time. It was open last night although a lot of tearful staff around.

loiner100 Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 Renee, a lovely, serene man, everyone will miss him, especially his staff who loved him well. My condolences along with everyone else. A shame he did not get back to Samui to end his days as I understand he had wished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
