Keith Franklin Obituary

We are sad to announce that on October 25, 2024, Keith Franklin (Cedar Bluff, Virginia) passed away. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.

As we bid Keith farewell, let us not mourn the absence of his physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of his spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Keith is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.

He is survived by: his significant other Christie Franklin; his sons, Gage Gamble and Zachary Franklin; his stepdaughter Sarah Allison; his mother Pat Shortridge; his sister Melissa Bandy; and his grandmother Hannah Taylor.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the American Heart Association in memory of Keith.
