RIP Glenn Back, known on this forum as Bad Ed.
Glenn was a well-respected long-term expat in Chiang Mai.
A retired USAID employee, he worked in many countries around the world - Africa, Middle-East, Asia - supervising emergency relief distribution.
He also rode motorbikes and was a keen birder.
Glenn used to hang out at the Kafe in his early Chiang Mai days, then moved onto be a Mad Dog regular.
