Obituary of Kyra Patricia Franchetti

Kyra Franchetti was a vibrant, happy and energetic two-year-old. Her life was tragically cut short when she was taken from us on July 27, 2016. Every morning she was woken up by “Mommy’s Kisses.” She spent her mornings taking classes, ranging from gymnastics and soccer to swimming and music. Kyra was a chatter box and easily made friends wherever she went. She loved bubbles: blowing them, catching them, and taking bubble baths. Kyra loved to watch Elmo, Mickey Mouse and “Kyra TV,” which included videos of her, her family and her friends. Kyra loved the sprinklers at the park and would jump and giggle whenever she could play there. She often requested “moo-sic” so she could dance. She loved to draw and play with playdough and puppies. Kyra was an avid traveler with her Mom, Jacqueline, and was thrilled when the destination included a beach. Kyra was adored by her family. She is survived by her grandparents Pat and Jack Franchetti, her aunts Suzanne Franchetti and Naomi Gardberg, her cousins Bram, Eva, and Helena, and her mother, Jacqueline, who misses Kyra every second of every day. Her family asks that you keep Kyra’s voice and spirit alive by saving the lives of other children. In lieu of flowers, you can make a donation to the Kyra Franchetti Foundation in her memory at www.kyrafranchetti.org. We ask you keep the entire Franchetti family in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.
