Thomas E Franklin Obituary

We are sad to announce that on April 17, 2025 we had to say goodbye to Thomas E Franklin of Elizabethton, Tennessee. Leave a sympathy message to the family in the guestbook on this memorial page of Thomas E Franklin to show support.

In the soft embrace of remembrance, we recall the profound impact Thomas had on those he encountered along his journey. Though Thomas may have slipped beyond the veil of mortality, his essence lingers like a faint fragrance in the air, a lingering reminder of the beauty and complexity of the human experience.

He was predeceased by: his parents, Millard Franklin and Celestine Shell Franklin; and his wife Shirley Harmon Franklin. He is survived by: his children, Teresa Ann Lawson and Timothy Eugene Franklin; his grandson Nathanyal Lawson (Sarah); his great grandchild Noland W. Lawson; and his brother Randy Lee Franklin (Debbie).
