Tjeani Rasheed Earl Wayne Franklin was born on December 2nd 1979 to his parents, Wayne Earl Franklin II and Emma Jean Frost. His time on this earth was cut short on November 8th 2023, when God called him home.

During his time here on earth, everyone he met had the benefit of his kindness, intelligence and sharing heart. His concern for people gave him the mindset to help them in any way he could. From finding shelter, to sharing his food, to helping those in need to find services, Tjeani made his mark by helping those whom others had given up on.

He is survived by his Mother, Emma Laughinghouse, his Dad, David Laughinghouse, his Father, Wayne Earl Franklin II, his Grandmother, Jessie McQuarter, his brothers, Eric, Wayne, Michael Wayne, Derrick and Nate, his sisters, Wayna, and Kendra, his son Isaiah, and his daughters Ariana and Adaja. There are a host of other family members and friends that will also miss his presence.

Tjeani will be missed but, it is good to know that God’s Grace, is sufficient for us all!
