Warren Edward "Eddie" Franklin
January 03, 1948 - June 02, 2019
Warren Edward "Eddie" Franklin, age 71, of Brooklyn NY, passed away on June 2 nd 2019, from a
surprise sucker punch by a barbaric gang of Cancers.
He was born in Tennessee on Jan 03, 1948, to the late Warren Keith “Speedy” and Alma
Katherine Franklin.
While wrapping up his Military Service a quick posting to New York put him in the right place to
meet his bride of close to 49 years Adrienne Franklin. A career with the telephone company
helped him provide for his family.
Whether on an outing, or on vacation, in New York, Tennessee or anywhere, while preparing
for the holidays he loved especially Christmas, or even spending a simple evening at home
watching jeopardy, this old house or a nature show; he did everything for and with his family.
All the times spent together were made special through his unique and playful sense of humor
and kind heart which he shared with all of us.
Husband, Father, Grandfather, Brother, Uncle, Cousin, Colleague and Friend.
Survivors include his wife, Adrienne Franklin, his three children, Warren(Dianne), Mary,
Joseph(Felicia), two grandchildren, Mary Ileene and Emily Rose, brothers, James,
Thomas(Penny), and Mark, sister-in-law Bernadette Nugent, nieces and nephews, Aaron Smith,
Karrah Franklin, Theodore E.(Hope) Nugent, Kristine(Lou) Pastina, Kathryn(John) Dingman, and
many more beloved Family. Preceded in death by his brother, Jerry L. Franklin in 2014, and his
Brother-in-law, Theodore J. Nugent in 2017, and his niece Bridgett E. Franklin in 2019.
