John "Frankie" F. England Jr.

JOHN F. “FRANKIE” ENGLAND JR., age 40, of Piqua passed away Wednesday, April 24, 2024 and is now resting in the arms of Jesus. He was born on July 30, 1983 in Alexandria, Louisiana. Frankie was the only child of Jo Ann Sauers.

He is survived by his mother and stepfather Ed Sauers, as well as many aunts, uncles and cousins. He was preceded in death by his grandmother Judy K. (Rose) Gustin whom he cherished and his beloved uncle Joe Gustin.

Frankie was a graduate of Piqua High School and obtained an Associate Degree in Applied Engineering from Edison State Community College. He worked for Industry Products in Piqua and later SEW in Troy for several years.

Frankie had a quick wit, was a highly intelligent, kind, warm, gentle and compassionate individual with a love for others he gave freely and genuinely. He was a champion for the underdog all his life. We will be eternally grateful for the time we had with him, the myriad of ways he brightened our days and enriched our lives. Our love for him was and always will be as big and deep as the ocean and we take comfort in knowing that we will one day be rejoicing in heaven with our beautiful boy.

In honoring his wishes, his body will be cremated. No services are to be held. Arrangements are in the care of Cromes-Edwards Funeral Home 302 S. Main Ave Sidney. Condolences may be expressed to the England family at our website, www.cromesfh.com
