In Memory of Piggy's Voice

We gather here today, to recognize Piggy, the voice of reasoning among the boys.

Piggy saw the world in a light that others could not. Many of

us here now had taken for granted his logistical reasons and attempts to keep the boys

alive. Piggy was more than just a character, he was the glue that held

together everyone on that island. We were not blessed enough to hear

Piggy’s final thoughts, but we could imagine what he might say. We are here to give our

condolences and to appreciate the voice he had, but also to wonder the voice he could

have had.
