Franklin James Bane

On March 16, 2024, in Ft. Worth, Texas at 5:50 pm,  Franklin James Bane, who graced this world for a fleeting twenty days, bid us farewell, leaving behind an immense void in our hearts as he embarked on his journey through the gates of Heaven.

A special memorial service to honor and cherish our beloved "Bubby" will take place on Tuesday, April 2, 2024, at 2:00 PM at Washington Avenue Christian Church in Amarillo.

Franklin came into this world on February 25, 2024, at 10:55 pm in Amarillo, bringing joy and light to his parents, Benjamin Evans Bane and Elizabeth Sharnell Admire. Though his time with us was short, the love he shared during his brief stay will forever remain in our memories.

As we gather to remember Franklin's presence in our lives, let us reflect on the indelible mark of love and innocence he imprinted on our souls. May his spirit find peace and may his memory continue to inspire kindness and compassion in all who were touched by his precious existence.

He was preceded in death by his grandfathers, Edwin Franklin Bane Jr. and James Melvin Admire (Franklin was named in honor of these two men.)

Franklin is survived by his parents, Benjamin and Elizabeth; his step-brother, Bryan Wolske-Admire; and his grandmother, Linda Crocker Mason.

The family suggests that donations be made to the Osteogenesis Imperfecta Foundation listed below, to educate hospitals lacking knowledge of this devastating disease and to educate parents to understand it better.
