Condolence: Dear family and friends of Franklin :
It has been more than a year since Franklin died last July 13, 2017. Even so, I know Franklin is still loved and will never be forgotten, especially by you children, little Frankie and Heather. The passing of time eases the burning pain of loss, and, … making it through the day, does get easier. Still, the loss hurts, especially when anniversaries come up.
May I tell you about a future day coming soon when ... all those sleeping, Resting In Peace, will be resurrected to a peaceful, happy life here on a transformed, paradise Earth?
You can welcome back Franklin, with hugs and kisses, and your hurt and pain regarding this loss can be replaced with indescribable happiness and tears of joy. Then the scripture at Isaiah 65:17B can be fulfilled for you: "For look, ... the former (painful) things will not be called to mind neither will they come up into the heart." None of the hurts, sorrows or disappointments of life in this system of things will bother us then.
Would you like to know when and how Jehovah God will do such wonderful things for us? The answers are all in the Bible.
Sincerely yours,
Harolyne

Condolence: I did not know Franky had past until I seen it online. Franky was a very good person and a good friend. My condolences to his son and daughter whom he loved very much. He was one of the last true friends that I have and he will be missed.

Condolence: Dear Family & Friends of Franklin:
I was saddened to learn of the death of Franklin on July 13 2017. Please accept my deepest sympathy at your loss. It is sad to lose a loved one at any age, but at just 55 years, death is nothing short of tragic.
May I share some verses from the Bible that bring continuing comfort when we suffer the loss of a loved one?
First, it was never our Creator's purpose that anyone should die, ever! When He put Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, they had the prospect of endless life, in ageless bodies, in perfect health, on a perfect Earth (Genesis 1:28). Adam and Eve could have passed that life on to us, but they sinned and lost everything for themselves ... and us. (Romans 5:12)
Next, it comforted me and softened my feelings toward our Creator, Jehovah God, to learn that it is Satan who causes imperfection, aging, sicknesses like cancer, and death -- not God (Hebrews 2:14).
Finally, the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, are our guarantees that this Earth will yet be a peaceful, global paradise and that Franklin will be resurrected to enjoy it. Remember Jesus' words at John 5:28-29a and John 11:25: "I am the resurrection and the life," and "all those in the memorial tombs ... will be resurrected." Until then Franklin, Rest In Peace.
May you have comfort and peace from these promises until the day when you can be reunited with a young (Job 33:25) and healthy (Isaiah 33:24) Franklin.
With deepest sympathy and genuine respect,
Harolyne Grant

Condolence From: Terry A Hedden
Condolence: Life is brief. I saw Frankie not long ago at the Pecan Haven and we reminisced and laughed. It is always good to catch up with someone every now and then. You never know the last time you will look into a man's eyes. Frankie always had the softest and sweetest eyes to look into, somehow a gentleness came through looking at him as we spoke and always has since we were children. So long my Cousin. God hold the family closer as the emptiness of these coming days lingers. I love you every one.
