Obituary
Anthony Franklin – ‘Downtown Tony Brown’
July 26 -March 26 58 years
Everyone in the community knew Anthony.’ His personality was a beacon of light for all he came into contact with.’ Jacquelyn Franklin acknowledges they married as teens and grew apart and divorced but never stopped loving one another. Their sons Anthony Jr, and Krystopher were born out of that love. Anthony loved sports! Most all of them, baseball, football and basketball and even coached a little league team. He was in near perfect health which made his death so unexpected. Anthony lost his battle with COVID19 and died three days after his mother Antoinette Franklin passed away from the same coronavirus. Anthony and his two brothers Herman and Timothy also COVID19 victims were buried on the same day.
May you rest in peace Anthony – forever in our hearts.
