Stephen Michael Carleton
1965 - 2009
Stephen Michael Carleton, a resident of Pattaya for the past 15 years, died
in his sleep on April 22, 2009, aged 43.
Born in 1965, in Bedfordshire, England, upon leaving school Stephen served
as an Electrical Engineer in the Royal Navy, and soon after his discharge,
he emigrated to Pattaya, working in the Real Estate sector and establishing
a reputation for being a caring, genuine and honourable man.
Stephen was one of nature’s true gentlemen who would do anything for
anybody. He was well respected and liked by all those he came in contact
with and will be sadly missed by his many friends and colleagues.
Stephen is survived by his son Connor Michael.
Steve’s service will take place at Wat Put Thi Wa Ra Ram (Krating Rai
Temple), Sukhumvit Road, Banglamung this Saturday 2nd May.
Everyone is welcome to pay respects from 11 a.m. with the cremation
scheduled for 3 p.m.
Steve,
Knowing you the way I did over the past 15 years, I know you will forgive
and understand me sharing my thoughts publicly.
We were best of friends; we used to talk and we used to laugh. I thought
that’s how it would always be, so imagine my surprise when you suddenly left
me.
We were often mistaken for one other, which was something you greeted with a
smile all the while knowing that it was in truth a compliment to me.
We had a master plan to take Pattaya by storm and I promise you mate that I
will stick with our plan and continue to fulfill our dreams.
You touched the heart of everyone you met and were always there no matter
how tough it used to get.
Pattaya will always remember the larger than life ‘Big Steve’ and I will
remember YOU as MY friend.
Love ya always mate, God bless.
