ericthai Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Wow i was surprised today when I went to Falang connection and asked where Martin was. They said he died last month. I have been in the USA for the last 6 months. got back 3 week ago went in last week and didn't see him and then stopped in again today. when I asked where he was the girl told me he died last month. What a shock. Anyone know how he died, is his wife running the place? The place doesn't seem the same with out him, the girls all seem sad. RIP Mr. Martin you will surly be missed in Surin.

Chaimai Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 (edited) Have a look on the Isaan Forum If you find that site you will see one of the last pictures of Martin, with Sunee, at a Christmas bash at Starbeam restaurant. Throat cancer, I believe. Edited February 25, 2010 by cdnvic link to other forum removed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim's_a_Thai_Fox Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 RIP Martin. I'd visited the Farang Connection a couple of times, supped on the Tetleys and enjoyed the bangers 'n mash and a chinwag with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
