Freedom Sky Franklin

Freedom Sky Franklin, 7 years old, was born on August 28, 2016, she attended Coleman A. Young Elementary and passed away on June 11, 2024, at children's hospital in Detroit, Michigan.

She brought joy to all who knew her; Freedom was creative, she loved to draw, sing, dance, make music, and to read in the dark. She loved her brother King; they enjoyed playing video games together.

A natural born leader, Freedom was described as bossy but loving. She was also sassy with a love for correcting others. She enjoyed learning Spanish and incorporating new words into her vocabulary.

She would always get into her sister's makeup (without permission of course). She loved to shop; she was quite the fashionista. She also LOVED to eat and enjoyed trying many different foods.

Freedom was referred to as having an "old soul", she was a very peaceful girl who didn't like loud noises and was never comfortable with any type of discord. She had a calm spiritual nature and shared a special bond with her mother; She described her mom as her hero, "A Shape Shifter" because she could fix anything in her eyes.

She touched the lives of all who knew her and will be deeply missed by her mother, Chenise Esther Franklin, father, Derrick Lamont Murray, her 6 siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and many of her teachers and friends.
