Thank You for the kind words of Frank!

Post by DJ Mick »

Hi there,
This is the first time i've visited this site and i got the address from my dads funeral today. It was an emotional ceremony and in it, were quotes from this very site. I heard all the things you had said about him and would just like to say thank you!

-Mick
RIP Dad xx

Hi there and welcome to SWB.

Frank was a kind genuine chap that always had time to help. He will be missed by everyone that knew him on the site here.

As Jay said tho he will live on in our hearts and thoughts forever.

At present there are many people riding with their rear footpegs down so that Frank can ride along. A mark of respect so to speak.

I'm sure if you have a look at some of the threads you will see the huge turnout of Bikers for the memorial run just over a week ago. A testament to a great friend.

RIP Frank ;)

Hiya Mick

We will be taking our bikes to Franks memorial on Friday, we had 34 bikes at Franks memorial rideout on Sunday 8th Jan.... something we felt we needed to do for Frank, many more would have turned up but it was a bitterly cold day and snowing in some places....

take care....

Hi there and welcome Mick.

Just to say how sorry we all are and has you have heard and read Frank was a very liked and respected man.

I have spoken to friends and other bikers about this tragic misfortune and said what a genuinely nice guy he was. Their response was

" They normally are"

to which i replied

"yes but he genuinely was a great guy who was so easy to get along with and friendly"

Tragic loss :cry:

RIP FRANK

My words on Frank are the same as other people have said :!:

The Frank we knew was someone very special, he always had time to help, He was always good for a laugh.

I only had the pleasure of knowing frank for just over a year but he made it feel like I had known him for years.

I will miss him but there are others who will miss him more :!:

Hi Mick

Welcome to the site.

As you probably gathered from all the comments frank was very popular. He was a top bloke and was far more popular than he would ever realise.

He will be well remembered and dearly missed by all of us that new him at swb.

My deepest condolences over your loss.

Andrew
so it turns out.........sometime i do give a f*ck

Hello Mick
Thanks for popping in to say thankyou :wink:
Your father was a true gentleman, very polite and always willing to help anyone. He would give advice freely on most things.
A lot of people will miss him :cry: such a sad loss but he will never be forgotten.
