Fellow French Dragon Ball dubbing actor Patrick Borg has announced on Facebook that his friend and long-time co-star Éric Legrand has passed away at the age of 66.

The above can be translated as:
“Farewell to my friend,
ERIC LEGRAND
You were calling me ;
“ my fat turkey “
I liked it, made me laugh. I used to call you my queen ! It had you rattling like a fat turkey.
For months, we have been writing each other on WhatsApp until last Monday, May 19th in the morning, you will be transferred to a palliative care service…
you’ve stopped answering me
45+ years of friendship and 40 years together on;
DRAGON BALL Z.
Your fans will miss you…
But I’ll miss you deeply!
I’m. tired of losing friends.
You have shown exemplary courage, you are a true Sayen Vegeta!
ERIC LEGRAND, you were a real Sayen!
Sunday evening, you wrote to me the following word in parentheses:
(Getting transferred to Palliative Care Unit on Monday. I hope it will be very soon next.. 🖐)
I will not forget you!
i am unhappy, very unhappy …
Farewell my friend. “
The exact date and cause of death are not known, but this is no doubt a great loss to French Dragon Ball, the future of which remains uncertain.
