We would like to convey our thanks to everyone for donating in memory of Francis to aid us in our work at The Donkey Sanctuary. We hope it will bring some comfort that the memory of Francis will live on through these donations. This support today helps us to look after donkeys in our care at sanctuaries across the UK and Europe and reach out to donkeys in desperate need around the world. On behalf of donkeys everywhere, thank you. Our thoughts are with you.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
