Sister Mourns Tosakan Band Keyboardist's Death at Funeral Service
Tosakan band keyboardist Prutthiphong Pudmong, a 37-year-old air force officer, was laid to rest at a Sing Buri temple after his unexpected death, with his sister appealing for improved business safety standards nationwide.
On July 15, 2026, at 9:30 a.m., the family of Prutthiphong Pudmong—a 37-year-old air force officer and keyboardist for the band Tosakan—collected his body from the Police Hospital's Institute of Forensic Medicine for a funeral ceremony at Wat Laem Khang temple in Sing Buri province. His 30-year-old sister, Chanyyanuch Pudmong, described the loss as devastating and unexpected, noting that Prutthiphong was a caring person who had looked after his family and close friends well. During the search for him, numerous people came forward to help, and the community continued to support the family until the very end.
Chanyyanuch expressed the family's gratitude to everyone who stood by them from the moment the search began. She said that if her brother were alive, he would want to be remembered for his musical talent and would not wish for others to grieve or question what happened. She emphasized that while the restaurant owner initially offered 10,000 baht in compensation, no money can truly compensate for the loss of a life or heal the family's emotional pain.
Regarding the accident's cause, which may have stemmed from the business operator's negligence, Chanyyanuch said the matter should proceed through the legal system, and the family would pursue compensation through proper channels. She made an urgent appeal to all business operators to review and improve their safety measures, as customers deserve to return home safely after seeking enjoyment. As her brother's body was placed in the hearse, she whispered, "Brother Gvaang, we're taking you home. We're going home together."
