We bid farewell to Alton E. Franks Jr. (Lafayette, Louisiana), whose journey of life gracefully concluded on July 1, 2025 at the age of 82. Alton touched countless lives with warmth and kindness, leaving behind cherished memories that will forever echo in hearts. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.
As Alton departs from this earthly realm, his essence lingers — a whisper on the wind, a ripple on the water — a testament to the enduring power of love to transcend the boundaries of life and death. Though Alton may no longer walk beside us, his spirit lives on in the memories and the legacy Alton leaves behind.
He was loved and cherished by many people including: his children, Sherri and Kevin; his son-in-law Martin Johnson; his son Louie; his grandsons, Connor and Logan; his parents, Alton Sr. and Vera; and his brother Shelton.
