I think it depends on how well you know them. Often, other people's parents are also referred to as mother - mae (áÁè) and father - paw (¾èÍ). I think if it is a more formal relationship you might add a polite prefix of Khun (...¤Ø³áÁè....¤Ø³¾èÍ)
If the adult is not in a parental relationship, you can refer to them as being an elder with the simple word pee (¾Õè)

Sorry if my transliterations aren't very clear.
