Gone but not forgotten

I heard today that my old friend, The Frog, died. I did loads of sketches of him over the years; he would rant for hours and I would draw, occasionally interjecting bons mots. Only a few drawings were a good likeness; however when viewed together you get some idea of the guy.
Thanks to Edoardo de Falchi for the Photoshopping in right hand photo.

Very sorry to hear this. I have really enjoyed your portraits/sketches of your friend. They're a great legacy.

I felt I came to know him too.

As the people above me have said, I felt that I got to know him, in some small way, through your wonderful sketches.

Very sorry to hear the news, and all best wishes your way.

Sorry to hear. The Frog will live forever thru your sketches.
