I knew Det Franklin with the El Paso Sheriffs Office...He was always smiling and was always kind to everyone. We laughed MANY times. I remember that no matter where he was, I would sing "super freak" and he would stop right in the middle of whatever he was doing and start dancing.....whether at the office, Walgreens, even at the doctors office where I would occassionally run into him.
We all have our memories of Franklin that we will cherish forever.
He is greatly missed by all.... May...

I have never known him to speak ill of anyone. He was always pleasant, charming, and helpful. I will always remember him with great...
