Praying for the family of Clifford Franklin. May the Lord comfort and keep you during this difficult time.
He was the king of many things but definitely when it came to doing puzzles and making his famous SOS! I also loved feeling like I was in a movie theater every time I explored through his movie collection. There was never a dull moment with this man, he was 100% one of a kind and I will miss him and that hilarious laugh every day.
Rest in love my guy, and thanks for giving me the best mom.
Love, Amaya.
Poppi, thank you for raising our family to who we are now. Thank you for being a loving irreplaceable grandfather. May you now rest in God's House I love you always.
Your Grandson,
Derrick DeWarren Wright, II
Poppi, we miss you and know you are watching all of us. I will never forget the memories we have together. From reunions to visits. It was always a pleasure to be around you. I am honored to call you my grandfather. We love you always! Christina and Trishtian
Poppi,
It's truly an honor to care your namesake. The Franklin name is and will forever be stamped throughout the U.S.
I will miss the phone calls, the visits out to Greensboro and the amazing conversations with you and Grandma Odessa.
You will truly be missed,
Little Allen
I always remember those great bbqs at Poppi's, where he would be the grill master, with all the cousins and aunts and uncles. I'm eternally grateful for the many trips I took to Greensboro to spend time with him and Grandma Odessa and really get to know them. I love you,Poppi. I will see you later. To our family, you know I love you all very much too.
