What you call them depends on your age and the difference between their age and the age of your parents. It is not uncommon for people to refer to older people as "uncle" and "aunt". Teachers at my school do it all the time for older teachers. For someone a little bit older you might just call them "pee". For all these examples you should add their first name at the end. For my friend's grandmother, I call her "khun yai". I think the best thing for you to do is to ask your friend.
