You did Frank proud

Post by Jase »

I'd just like to say to those involved in organising the memorial ride a few weeks back and todays service that you did Frank Proud. AT, Miler, Hassy, Jay to name but a few.


Was quite a sight being at the back of the group today as we rode to the service with what had to be well in excess of 40 bikes. I'm sure Franks looking down on us today with a smile on his face.



Well done guys ;)

I'm glad it went well, I stopped and thought of you folks at 2.00 ..... Though I never had the privelege of meeting Frank I would have liked to join you, but unfortunately couldn't get away from work. :(

Seeing the line of bikes going over the Tamar Bridge and down the A38 was a sight I'll never forget.

Thanks to those who organised the day.

Well done to all who turned out to support today - you've all done Frank proud!!

I looked at the clock at 2 o'clock today at work and felt guilty for not making the effort.

Sorry Frank. R.I.P.

It was truly a memorial day and i'm sure Frank was looking down on us all riding in convoy. Like JAK said it was a really weird feeling crossing the tamar bridge looking at the line of bikes. Service was very good and so was the meet afterwards.

A big up to all those involved in organising this day and making it possible for us to say our last goodbye to this truly remarkable man.

I was really touched today and i'm sure Frank was very proud.

RIP FRANK

Was my first time meeting a lot of you today. It was both a sad and a happy day. Sad in that Frank was not alive to see it, but happy that there was such a send off to a man who has touched so many of us.

I feel the flame of Franks spirit burns within us all. A bright blue flame with a grey tinge and a wicked scouse smile.

Hope to see many of you agian soon.

Cheers

So sorry I wasn't able to make the trip today. Although I never met Frank, I feel as though I knew him through all the comments on the site.
I had a moment of quiet rememberance and prayer at 2pm.
Hopefully will see some of you in the coming months
