Franko passed away way too young and very suddenly of pneumonia renal kidney failure on April 4, 2024. Franko loved playing baseball and the violin. He was an expert at computer technology and loved his many, many friends and his dogs Oscar, Elmo, Scooter, and Rosco. Franko was a genius in math just like his Papa Fred. He graduated from UMass Boston with a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting. Franko always helped and supported his friends who were his family-and will be their brother in their hearts forever.
He is survived by his loving Mom, Chrissy and stepfather, Jesse, and the late Francis Lyons, Jr. and his younger brother, Bailey; nephew of his most loving Aunties Patty Imperato, Anne Meola and the late Kathy McGee, nephew of Garry Meola, Joe Imperato, and John McGee, most loved cousin/brother Anthony “Tony” Imperato and cousins Andrea Imperato and her fiance' Andrew Holmes, cousin of Johnny, Brian, and Katie McGee; Grandson of Francis “Papa Frannie” Lyons and the late Theresa Lyons, loving nephew of Kevin and Lori Lyons, Kerry Lyons, Jennifer Rey, and James Lyons, cousin Tyler Taylor and so many other loving cousins from both sides of the Lyons families. He will remain in the heart of his #1 fan, his loving mother, Chrissy Lyons Agosto, forever. Franko was her world and always will be.
Visiting hours will be Thursday, April 11th from 3:00 to 7:00pm at Salvatore Rocco & Sons Funeral Home, 331 Main Street, Everett.
