Mark Franklin Obituary
Mark Franklin, age 51, of Braselton, Georgia, passed away on Saturday, March 8, 2026.
Mark was known for his playful personality and his ability to make others laugh. He loved watching professional wrestling and enjoyed collecting collectibles of all kinds. Mark had a fun-loving spirit and was always being silly and trying to bring joy to those around him. His humor and lighthearted nature made him someone people enjoyed being around.
He is survived by his loving mother, Joann Patterson; his sisters, Christy Distiso and Jen Hicks; and his cherished nieces and nephews, Kyley, Logan, Alana, Elizabeth, and Mia. He is also survived by several aunts, uncles, cousins, and extended family members.
Mark will be remembered for his laughter, his playful heart, and the happiness he brought into the lives of his family and friends. He will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.
Family and friends will continue to honor and remember Mark's life and the memories they shared with him.
