2 more dead boys

[DragonMaster]

In addition to the other post regarding the discovery of a dead Thai boy, 2 others passed away today as well. The first boy has been around Pattaya for a long time, and was personally known by me. Jo Jo Phayong used to work at Cupidol Bar in Boyztown, and most recently at Classic Boy Bar in the same location where Cupidol used to be, Jo Jo was from Laos. The second boy, I do not know but I have seen around the bar scene. I was told his name is Bass, but I have no other information at this time. Jo Jo and Bass both died within a couple of hours of each other but at different locations. Cause of deaths are unknown at this time.

Many of the boys including myself have a video of Jo Jo’s friends desperately trying to revive him to no avail. The video is extremely graphic and very sad to watch. He passed at the hospital after transport. I’m sure more information will be coming in the next few days.

I was sent that horrible video but with no context so your message is the first time I've had any actual information. I've been a regular at both Cupidol and Classic Boys but I didn't know Jo Jo.

Heartbreaking.

I didn't know Jo Jo, but I know a boy named Bass who used to work as cashier at YaYa Bar in Sunee Plaza years ago. He went on to take up photography and is known to show up these days in Jomtien Complex occasionally snapping pictures. I pray it wasn't him.

I knew JoJo and he was a very sweet and kind guy. May he rest in peace.

Is this the Eric who started a restaurant years ago in Sunee then to the Complex?

Yes he had with the swiss man the restaurant and hotel in Sunee.

I am very sorry and upset to hear about Eric. I've known him for many years and he was always a good friend. He was a true Pattaya icon. I, and many more, will truly miss him.

So many friends - and enemies too - are gone now.

I'm also very sorry to hear about Eric's passing. He was just a great guy all-around...and a fabulous cook.

I first feasted on one of his popular German meatloaf dinners when he opened his restaurant next to Euro Boys Gogo/Sunee. Two years later he closed shop and went over to run the kitchen at Dolce Vita/Jomtien Complex. I was renting a place a few doors down from DV at the time and always looked forward to seeing his smiling face posed beside his Saturday night barbeque buffets.

He's certainly missed.

So many are gone now. Only a few of us "old timers" still left.
