Franklyn Edward - 30.9.10 xx

[Laura-CCC4]

I am sorry to return briefly with bad news.

After a short illness, one of the biggest personalities has left us today. Frankie was my most vocal, and most active, pig, a true gentleman and a pig who warmed your heart as soon as you met him. An enormous character, he had a way of looking at you where you knew what he was thinking, what he was up to, always a bit of cheekiness there. I adopted him in October 2008, he was estimated to be around 3 years old, which would have made him around 5 years old now. My third 5 year old to pass in seven weeks.

His passing today has come as a huge shock. I just can't believe he's gone. It was peaceful; difficult to watch, but ultimately peaceful and I did manage to hold him in his last few minutes, which I am so glad I did.

I'm going to miss my little Frankie.

I love you so much little man. xxxxxxxxxxx

BIG BIG HUG

OH, Laura - I have family from Switzerland visiting and can't be on much; but this was the one bit of news I really did not want to be hit in the eyes with first thing!

I am so sorry that you lost your charmer so suddenly and quickly. He will leave a very big hole in your and your family's heart!

Oh my God, I am so so sorry. I remember Frankie being one if the first piggy pics I saw when I joined the forum. It's been such a sad week

 

[pompypigs]

I'm so very sorry to hear such sad news Laura. Huge hugs to you and your family. You're having such a rough time lately xx
Sleep well gorgeous Frankie, you'll never be forgotten xx

 

[Laura-CCC4]

Thank you everyone. I am stunned, shocked, heartbroken and lost. Yesterday feels so surreal and today, I don't know where I am or what I am doing. Only yesterday my mum took Nooshi's body to the crematorium, as Nooshi's old owner is collecting her ashes tomorrow.

A favourite picture of him...

And (sorry Sophie!) a picture of him meeting one of his fans...

 

[sophiew (EAGPR)]

Ah Laura, I'd forgotten you took that pic but glad you did. he was more like a little dog than a guinea! Almost tried to put him up my jumper and piggy nap him that day!
