At this point in life it feels like a lifetime.<br /><br />We move forward and at times we have the odd glimmer of a smile of happy times 5 years to 7 years ago. <br /><br />Thailand is still as kind and gentle as it was during this tragedy 5 years ago. I thank the kindness of the Thais and those involved in helping for your kindness of which I shall never forget.<br /><br /><!-- Begin ShinyStat Pro code --><br /><script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript" src="http://codicepro.shinystat.com/cgi-bin/getcod.cgi?USER=lornesax&amp;P=1"></script><br /><noscript><br /><a href="http://www.shinystat.com" target="_top"><br /><img src="http://www.shinystat.com/cgi-bin/shinystat.cgi?USER=lornesax&amp;P=1" alt="Web counter" border="0" /></a><br /></noscript><br /><!-- End ShinyStat Pro code --><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/43605013893850462-6692323085805199793?l=lornesaxberg.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>In memory of Lorne Saxberghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06324376341592757339noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-43605013893850462.post-5318781970207773472010-05-06T02:53:00.001-07:002010-05-06T07:51:38.519-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Hi-B_AbUzi0/S-KT3DWykRI/AAAAAAAAAXE/nXDiwcbuqhg/s1600/eyeshappydays.jpg"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 128px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Hi-B_AbUzi0/S-KT3DWykRI/AAAAAAAAAXE/nXDiwcbuqhg/s200/eyeshappydays.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5468095471584186642" border="0" /></a><br />4 years have passed and time has gone by so fast that 2006 seems like a distant memory.<br /><br />Maybe we never really understand why tragedies happen but must accept the reality of what was and step forward.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Many thanks</span> to the Phukhet Police Dept., Vachira Hospital/mortuary staff and the kindness of the hotel and tour staff. You were all very warm and kind and I have been back to Thailand many times since and will forever find the warm hearts and smiles of the Thai people something that brings great comfort.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">No thanks</span> to the pure stupidity and incompetence of losers like Blais at FAIT, useless Japan FAIT staff, Nancy, David and Sylvie. Usually one learns from their faults and mistakes in life but I would say your pure ignorance and lack of commonsense has made you blind.<br /><br /><br />The many wonderful travels these past 4 years have made me realize how short life can be and the incredible beauty to be seen and experienced around the world.<br />I wish he could have seen all the countries he dreamed of going to...<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><!-- Begin Shinystat code --><br /><script type="text/javascript" src="http://codice.shinystat.com/cgi-bin/getcod.cgi?USER=lornesaxberg"></script><br /><noscript><br /><a href="http://www.shinystat.com" target="_top"><br /><img src="http://www.shinystat.com/cgi-bin/shinystat.cgi?USER=lornesaxberg" alt="Free hit counter" border="0" /></a><br /></noscript><br /><!-- End Shinystat code --><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/43605013893850462-531878197020777347?l=lornesaxberg.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>In memory of Lorne Saxberghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06324376341592757339noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-43605013893850462.post-53409887859973885042009-04-25T09:11:00.000-07:002009-08-25T22:19:55.227-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Hi-B_AbUzi0/SfM2wMzgdyI/AAAAAAAAAW4/87A0Q53rUqg/s1600-h/IMG_2433.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Hi-B_AbUzi0/SfM2wMzgdyI/AAAAAAAAAW4/87A0Q53rUqg/s400/IMG_2433.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5328662985808312098" /></a><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">3 ปีที่แล้วเราได้ประสบเหตุอันน่าเศร้าสะเทือนใจ ข้าพเจ้าขอขอบพระคุณมา ณ ที่นี้สำหรับความเมตตาและการปฏิบัติหน้าที่อย่างเป็นมืออาชีพยิ่งขององค์กร และบุคคลดังต่อไปนี้<br /><br />สถานีตำรวจภูธรจังหวัดภูเก็ต<br /><br />โรงพยาบาลวชิระภูเก็ต<br /><br />เจ้าหน้าที่บริษัท คอนเน็คต์ ทัวร์ <br /><br />ลูกทัวร์ 20 ท่านในวันเกิดเหตุ<br /><br />ผู้ประกอบวิชาชีพที่เกี่ยวข้องกับเกาะไข่ แห่งอ่าวพังงา<br /><br />ข้าพเจ้ารู้สึกซาบซึ้งใจเป็นอย่างยิ่งสำหรับการเอาใจใส่และ ความช่วยเหลือของแต่ละท่าน ซึ่งทำให้ข้าพเจ้าตระหนักว่า สิ่งที่ทำให้ภูเก็ตเป็นสถานที่น่าอัศจรรย์และน่าอยู่มากที่สุด ก็คือคนภูเก็ตนี่แหละ<br /><br />ขอให้ภูเก็ตจงคงไว้ซึ่งความสุข ความงดงาม และความเจริญรุ่งเรืองตลอดไป</span><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s04.flagcounter.com/more/GqB"><img src="http://s04.flagcounter.com/count/GqB/bg=0FA31E/txt=000000/border=12CC31/columns=2/maxflags=12/viewers=0/labels=1/" alt="free counters" border="0"></a><br /><br /><script type="text/javascript" src="http://widgets.amung.us/classic.js"></script><script type="text/javascript">WAU_classic('v5npu12pw1fm')</script><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/43605013893850462-5340988785997388504?l=lornesaxberg.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>In memory of Lorne Saxberghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06324376341592757339noreply@blogger.com0
