Dear Franklin, we met in 2010 on line I'm Italian. I offered you some Furga Alta Moda Furga  SSSS GIRL haute couture dresses from the S collection... that you were looking for.
I've been passionate about Furga since I was a child and I wrote a book about it.
You were a genuine and exquisite person. I see you again in the photos of the Furga collections you followed with love.
Rest in peace. Elisabetta  Sgualdini

So sad that I didn't know he passed away.  I met Franklin many years ago at a big east coast doll show and traded with him on ebay as well.  He was a treasure.   RIP.

I’m am so sorry to just now finding that a wonderful person from the Barbie World has passed away.  After meeting him the first time, each time I went to a doll show or convention you find yourself looking for Franklin. Big heart, big smile, just a wonder human being. Those who knew you will never forget you. You lived your life and enjoyed what you did. So, I want to say that it was a pleasure to have known you and I will always remember that smile. 

My deepest condelences to Franklin's family. He was always a highlight at the IFDC conventions. He has gone too soon. RIP Franklin.

I met Franklin during my membership with the SFDC. I kept in touch with him over the years. I enjoyed his warm heart, imagination, creativity and his talent as a doll-designer.

I met you and spoke with you in two occasions, but had seen and known about you through the doll community for years, you were just as friendly as the rest of your friends describe.  May you rest in peace, Franklin...

What a tragic loss.  He left far too soon.

Franklin, you were a bright light to everyone that had the pleasure of making your acquaintance. 
I always enjoyed Franklin's company and his costumes. I'll miss seeing him at every convention I attend.

We will always remember your wonderful smile and talent.  We will miss you

My deepest sympathy to Mr. Liao's family, friends and fellow doll enthusiasts. He will be missed by all.

Over the years, I purchased from Franklin on ebay.  He was always such a wonderful, pleasant person to deal with.  And so talented.  May his soul rest in peace. Francesca (WA State)

I've known Franklin since 1986 when he attended his first Barbie Convention, and Richard & I have always looked forward to seeing him at any of the conventions he attended after that.  Franklin was so fun and we always loved visiting with him at the conventions.  His costumes were amazing.  He was a great friend and we will miss him greatly!

Franklin was a good friend and member of Pacific Friends, a very good organization now out of existence. He was always a willing worker and friendly to me and always had something nice and kind to say.
