In her post, Sharon couldn’t help but get emotional upon losing their lovable pot-bellied big. She wrote, “Our hearts are crying…😪😪😪 Our favorite pig in our farm, our Bacon, suddenly passed away. She just refused to wake up that morning, having refused food for a couple of days before then. We love you, our baby girl… Thank you for the love and happiness you gave all of us - even your barkada, our farm dogs (because you forgot you were a pig the moment the piggies ostracized you but the dogs were kind - that you even learned how to 'bark' like them!) We will always remember you and will always love you."

It was in 2014 when Sharon first introduced Bacon to her social media followers with a post on her Facebook page and shared how he was the runt of the litter which was why he needed to be bottle-fed by the caretaker at their farm.

Sharon wrote, “This is Bacon, our pet pig. Ako ang nagpangalan sa kanya na Bacon. Kasi, nung pinanganak siya kasama ng mga kapatid niya, siya ang pinakamahina, di siya makalapit para mag-suckle sa nanay niya. So kinuha ng caretaker namin at sa bote pinadede ng milk. Nung lumakas na siya after a few days, binalik na siya sa nanay at mga kapatid niya.

"Aba—patakbong bumalik sa bahay ng caretaker namin! Ayaw na niya! Akala yata niya sila mga piggies pero siya hindi! Hahahaha! Nag-iingay at 'kumakatok' siya sa door ng bahay ng caretaker namin pag sarado at gusto niya pumasok. Doon din siya natutulog sa room nila. At sumasama siya maligo sa banyo! May identity crisis itong si Bacon namin—akala niya yata puppy siya o little girl na tao! Hahaha!”
