Frank Gets Ill...

English Frank Gets Ill...

...a few years ago...a few years ago
Robin called Kiki to tell her
that English Frank was very ill.
Robin had been with Frank
a long time since his divorce.

Frank had cancer, was looking for
the best cures. Now FRANK
NEEDED THE BENEFIT.,
he always hepled others
now his turn...

We met at his favorite place,
the Cat and the Fiddle
with Kim the owner
Keith Morris and others
I'm sorry I do not remember
we met a few times while
Frank was in hospital care or
at a resthome. Kiki and I
visited him several times.

Frank knew he was very ill
and asked to make a small video
for his daughter in England.
We did this, it was hard Frank was weak.

Well, the benefit turned out to be
a memorial.
Robin called Kiki first
who tearfully called me.
Kiki went to the service,
where Frank's turbulent life
continued as a guy with a camera tried
to film Frank's body, he was beat up.

The funeral was was very solemn though,
with a large wreath of flowers
from Lemmy of MOTOTRHEAD,
a long time friend of Frank's.
BY THE WAY
this was the first time in many years
that these band members
had been together,
but FOR FRANK.

We all had the memorial at
John Pochna's zero-one gallery
Keith Morris was there
performing with the bands
the Flesh Eaters, the Gears,
Thelonius Monster Bob Forrest
and Mike Martt too.
It was a sad 1998.

Frank we love you, always.
