#mate feed queue repeat

we've missed thirteen birthdays with you. you would have been 51 years old today.

everything about you we will always cherish; your playing, your voice, your mask, your face, your smile, your eyes, you. we've remembered you as our favorite pig in the whole world, blessing us with your talent and love since the beginning. not a day goes by where we don't think about you.

you better with Joey cracking a beer and celebrating this birthday like a madman up in the sky today. we're sending all our birthday wishes up to you.

it's hard to believe this is the third birthday you've had to miss with us. you would've been 48 years old today, old man.

never could any of us have imagined a life without you. who knew such a little guy could make such a dramatic impact on the lives of millions? we're always thinking of you, your laugh, your hair, your talent, everything. words cannot describe just how much you mean to all of us.

let this day be a good one, and be sure to be celebrating your special day with Paul, too. you two better be throwing the biggest party the heavens have ever seen. all of our happiest of birthday wishes are being sent up to you, little guy.
