PRUITT
Franklin Garfield Pruitt, 74, of Sparta, IL; born on May 11, 1947 in Elkin, NC the son of Garfield and Lola (Carter) Pruitt; passed away on Wednesday, August 11, 2021 at home surrounded by his loving family.
He worked in coffee sales and distribution. Franklin loved his job because he always enjoyed a warm cup of coffee with his friends or family. He served in the United States Army as a public information officer. When he heard his brother was being enlisted, Franklin decided to join the Army to protect his brother. He knew they would not allow siblings to serve in Vietnam at the same time, so Franklin did what he knew he had to do. He always put others before himself, especially when it came to his family.
He was preceded in death by his parents; brother – Jimmy Pruitt; sister – Hazel Trivette.
Franklin is survived by his loving wife – Linda (Weir) Pruitt of Sparta, IL to whom he married February 8, 1978; three children – Kim Sneathen of Washington, GA, Sean (Lisa) Pruitt of Cartersville, GA, and Joshua Pruitt of Duluth, GA; four grandchildren – Maggie Pruitt, Marly Pruitt, Connor Sneathen, and Clayton Sneathen; four siblings – Betty Mueller of Taylorsville, NC, Jean Whittaker of Kernersville, NC, Wade Pruitt of NC, and Bobby Joe (Theresa) Pruitt of Loganville, GA.

Linda, after a very long absence I decided today it was time to finally again speak with Frank. When the numbers were disconnected I went and looked and found his obituary. Please accept the sympathies of myself and my Linda. I will always remember Frank as long as I have any kind of memory. He was the best. I know that he is in heaven and God will watch over him for eternity. May God-bless you and your family
