The entire nation of Thailand remains in mourning with thousands of people dressed in black traveling to the Grand Palace in Bangkok, where the king lies in state, to pay their last respects to their beloved king. The mourning period will last for at least one year, after which the late King Bhumibol Adulyadej will be cremated in a elaborate royal ceremony at the royal cremation grounds nearby.
Cards and letters of condolence can be sent to: H.M. Queen Sirikit, Chitralada Palace, Bangkok 10303 Thailand.
There is also a well written article about the many accomplishments of King Bumibol Adulyadej at:

The article also talks about the animosity shown by a small group of detractors who are jealous of the monumental love and respect shown to the dead king.
Very sad.
