Carpenter. Judy attended Anderson High School. She retired as an inspector from General Motors after 30 years of service. However, her passion in life was singing for the Lord.

She was preceded in death by her husband of 66 years, Russell (Gene) Franklin; parents; son, Russell (Russ) Franklin Jr; son-in-law, Rick L. Brough; granddaughter, Lyndsey Franklin and two brothers, Gerald and David Carpenter.
