Lillie P. Franklin Obituary
We are sad to announce that on May 16, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Lillie P. Franklin of Metamora, Illinois. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Lillie P. Franklin to show support.
As we bid farewell to this luminous soul, let her loved ones carry forward the torch of her memory, illuminating the path ahead with the warmth of her love and the brilliance of her spirit. Though Lillie may journey beyond the horizon of our sight, her essence remains woven into the very fabric of our being — a guiding light in the darkness, a beacon of hope in the night.
She was predeceased by: her parents, James Roy and Opal Blake Dishman; and her husband Richard E. Franklin. She is survived by: her son Dale W. Behymer; her son-in-law William Kirkpatrick; and her children, Teresa Kirkpatrick, Diana Lutton (Doug Barrett) and Richard Franklin (Bobbi). She is also survived by twenty-one grandchildren and several great-grandchildren.
