Words cannot express how much our family loved John-John...I remember the little choir that I used to direct at Bethel AME Church, Fountain Hill; John-John, his sister, and brothers and so many other children in the neighborhood used to sing their hearts out for the Lord! I can't forget the day that John-John, and five other young children gave their lives to CHRIST! Oh! What joy that floods my soul. God be with you (John-John) 'til we meet again. We will continue to keep the entire family in our prayers.
Love Always,
Pastor Patsy Hatchet and family

My deepest sympathy go out to the Franklin family...John John was the most Up Beat person you could ever know...he always kept me laughing. I remember how he would come down to Big Mama Clara house when we were kids and help shell peas..we couldn't sit down long so we had a pea throwing contest & had peas on the floor Big Mama kicked us out the house..that right there I will never forget..you are in a better place now my friend, my cousin, no more pain & suffering for you. To: Mary, Johnny, Tonya, Alfonzo, Tyrone, & Deverick....God be with you guys, My heart and love I have for each one of you...Although its difficult today to see beyond the sorrow may looking back in memory help comfort you tomorrow..Death leaves a heartache no one can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal..GOD Bless!!!!!!
