He moved to Ampour Khong and opened a small supermarket / bar which was popular with the locals and expats he was allways up for a joke or a beer (tinny). His funeral is on Monday in Ampour Khong for those who may like to go please PM me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joybelle Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 Hello I am hoping you can help me .... I am from Australia and my daughter has just rung me very distressed. She is one of 4 daughters of Tony Fuller. I was Tony's 2nd wife. Is the news of his death true? Is there someone we can speak with regarding his death ... neither of his brothers are aware of his death. Many thanks for any assistance or news - Joy Fuller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgegeorgia Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) Apparently his funeral is tommorrow/Monday..but i guess if your in Australia you wont make it on time. I imagine you would talk to the Australian Embassy in Bangkok ,obviously someone has signed a release form for his body and paying for his funeral...must say that funeral is very quick? ??? Strange the Australian Embassy has done their report so quick and allowed the release of the body.

Many thanks for any assistance or news - Joy Fuller gWhat a very sad situation your family has been placed in. Please accept our condolences. It must be very stressful for you all. However, your note is an important reminder that many of us here in Thailand have burned our boats behind us when we left our home countries. But in this tragic case, it seems that some things have slipped through the net. Personally, this has got me thinking, and I don't believe anyone in Thailand would be able to inform my family, should such a thing happen to me. Of course, the embassies would do their best but????

Yes any information would be appreciated, i am one of his daughters and after hearing this news have tried to find out more, i contacted the embassy but they did not have any record of his death. However i believe they are now looking into it. Maybe he thought his bridges were all burned but there is family left behind that would like to know what happened.

llamedos Posted February 16, 2015 Author Share Posted February 16, 2015 Hi yes the embassy do know as they rang me at 12.30 today as his cremation is at 1pm i dont think there is much that can be done. It was all hurried i agree i am not sure he was admitted to hostpital as according to my information he was dead at the scene of the accident Thai way is to take the person to the WAT. The embassy were trying to talk to the police chief in Chyapum but its under Korat juristiction. I dont think he ever forgot his family in Australia he did mention them to me often in a good way A very sad day for us all Family are welcome to PM me if they wish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whisperingoldman Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 A tragic end to someone I had known for close to 30 years. His love of bikes and bike racing was legendary in Australia amongst those that knew him. Doubled me one day on the last big bike he had in Australia before moving to Thailand. Scared the shit outta me and I told him so. Think I called him a lunatic. In his early days in Pattaya, he would get the bug, hire a big bike for the day and show the locals how it was done. Watched him one day wheel stand a big bike up Second Road. He was good at it. Sincerest condolences to Roger, Peter and the girls should you read this.
