Frankie was a very quiet person...Definately liked a drink or two. To those who knew him well they would know that he had a wicked, warped sense of humour. Frankie also had a great interest in the paranormal in particular ufology. As a child he was a cheeky imp who loved to chase girls with dog poo on a stick, we fought like cat and dog but were as close as siblings can be...
It would be easy not to divulge his manner of death as suicide still holds a stigma but I think that there is no shame in what happened as when it comes down to it...its an illness maybe not a physical one, but an illness of the mind. I am sure that given a say in this memorial he would agree that there is no shame in his cause of death...
I wanted to do this to give people a tangible memorial, to celebrate his life, understand his death and maybe put some personal memories...that would be great!
Its been 7 years in January since his passing so this is a long time coming...

LOVE RAE X
Though I chose death instead of pointless pain,
Please forgive the manner of my leaving.
My love and need for all of you remain.
I could not long such suffering sustain,
Nor would it long have held you from your grieving.
Though I chose death instead of pointless pain,
I hope that choice will not my memory stain,
Nor lead you to be wroth at my deceiving.
My love and need for all of you remain.
For only in you do I live again,
Woven like a wind into your weaving.
Though I chose death instead of pointless pain,
I put to you the plea of the self-slain:
To comprehend an anguish past conceiving.
My love and need for all of you remain
That all that I have been not be in vain,
But blend into the earth of your believing.
Though I chose death instead of pointless pain,
My love and need for all of you remain.
The 7th anniversary of your death...
It has been 7 years now since I last saw your face or heard your voice or felt the warmth of your hand.
I would give anything to be going to the church with you and for a wee drink or 3 as wednesdays were our night.
But all I can do is light a candle for your souls repose and hope that you are happy on the otherside.
I miss you lots my baby brother.
Your big sis Katrina xxx
Waiting at the Door
I can’t explain so deep inside
The very fabric of my soul
Only a heart that grieves such loss
Can ever truly understand
It’s like you’re waiting at the door
Until a loved one comes back home
You feel a longing in your heart
When they appear the longing stops
But in a loss that never ends
You’re always standing at that door
You feel the longing in the breeze
So incomplete and never filled
I cannot find the words to say
Just what it’s like to want forever
Never seeing them again
Just always waiting at the door
Alison Mary Dunn
You may not think the world needed you, but it did. For you were unique: like no one that has ever been before or will come after. No one can speak with your voice; say your piece; smile your smile; or shine your light. No one can take your place for it was yours alone to fill. Because you are not here to shine your light, who knows how many travelers will lose their way as they try to pass by your empty place in the darkness
May you rest in peace with the Angels x
A poem I wrote for frankie
I forgive you Frankie...
for you were made of flimsy cobwebs
and bound by far too delicate thread.
Your soul was much too subtle
for this world, with its deep
distain for flimsy cobwebby souls,
who are simply more than most broken
by even lifes gentlest breezes.
I have to let you go with a pure heart...
for deep down I know
you felt set apart
on the sidelines
you were a watcher,
who tryed to brazen out lifes storms.
but could only manage a little while.
Lifes voyage left you queasy
and you longed to moor
your boat on the shores
of the spiritual home.
I will always love you though...
for all the tears and questions aside
you are more than a brother,
a kindred soul.
Even death with its heavy veil of misunderstanding
cannot make me believe
you didn't go home to wait
and I will join you
when the last dance is done
and my hearts last song is sung...
I forgive you Frankie you for its my hearts
true knowing that
you didn't completely snuff
out the flame of exsistence
but merely shed
your dense flesh overcoat
and took the short cut home.
I think that its worth mentioning that a paragraph in his suicide note said...
"may I take this opportunity to say goodbye and I will see you in the afterlife"
and this was written with his final words in mind.
im so sorry about your loss.and i understand about the illness aspect of it.it wouldnt be an easy decision to make that of ending it all.myself and my famiy are trying our best to stop my 26 year old brother from commiting suicide.he has mental illness and has threatened to do it.wee live on eggshells most of the time. your brother isnt suffering anymore and in a great many years to come you will see him again.god bless x
Don't Judge Me - by Unknown Author
Don't judge me for how I left this world,
Remember the love I gave,
A lot of grief will follow me
For the decision that I made.
Changes appear in everyone's life
Some good, some bad,
The one I chose for myself
Made everyone very sad.
But in time the memories
will heal the hurt of hearts
And my presence will be felt by all
With an inner peace.
Remember me when the sun is bright
And laughter fills the air
And a moonlit night and a whisper of wind
Will tell you I am there.
Don't look down on my family
Or fill their hearts with blame
For my leaving them without good-byes
Has left them so much pain.
If I could go back in time
I would say a last good-bye
I would tell them to look to tomorrow
And for me, please do not cry.
