Even though I've only known Big Cat,Francis for 2 years he has touched my heart for a lifetime.He always had a smile and a breathe of fresh air in our little talks.He always would tell me everything will be alright.Will really miss his out of this world stuffing and his turn of heads entrance into the Sportsmen when the door opens.Sadly missed by Little brother junk yard,Vernon Lauw whom has looked up to his Big Brother always.

We would like to extend our sincere and deepest sympathy to the family. It's hard to believe we will no longer be greeted with that big smile and warm pat on the back that we knew was completely genuine and just because of the kind of person you were. May the heavens welcome you with open arms and give you peace!
