My condolences to the family. Dr. Franklin was my doctor for 27 years and after hurricane Katrina he saw my mom pro bono. He prayed with us and he loved the Lord. Thanking God for his legacy.

I remember Charles Franklin from our undergraduate science clases together at Howard U. He was a good person and a serious student engaged and involved in campus life. I´m sorry that he died too young to see his grandchildren grow up.

Jennifer and I talked about Dr. Franklin last week. Jennifer mentioned that he and I would talk theology during my appointment and Jennifer´s appointment followed. She always told him "I want my time also". Eventually the staff scheduled our appointments before lunch so the waiting time for other patients would not be lengthened by us. Chuck was a man of God, wonderful caring doctor, outstanding Alphaman and Beta Brother and a friend. Looking forward to seeing you on the other side. A Phi

You were a good frat brother and friend,we all miss you. Love and good life for your family.

Charles: a highly competitive and non stop energy person. Attended Howard University with Charles. He pledged Alpha Phi Alpha, I pledge Omega Psi Phi. Lost contact with Charles in our Life endeavors.

I was also visiting his office during winter holidays to wish him a happy year and he...

I met and became a patient of Dr. Franklin at the beginning of his practice. He has been the most attentive physician from which I have ever had to seek medical help. We conversed about my health issues and as friends we conversed about our family. He was a great physician and a wonderful friend. At 85 years old it is very hard to reestablish the kind of trustworthy patient/physician relationship we had. He had a bedside manner rarely seen in doctors today. I am sure all his patients feel...
