Elizabeth Ann Franks

Elizabeth Ann (Fore) Franks, known by family and friends as "Beth", was born February 25, 1992, in Pauls Valley, OK, to Michelle P. (Mancini) Roady and the late James C. "Trey" Fore, III. She entered the arms of Jesus on Sunday, October 19, 2025, at the age of 33 years, 7 months, and 24 days. Beth and Mason Seth Franks were married on September 17, 2016, in Ardmore.

Beth grew up in Davis. After graduating from Davis High School, Class of 2010, she attended Murray State College. Although Beth had planned to pursue a career in respiratory therapy, she ventured into optometry, working with Eye Solutions in Ardmore. In 2016, she began working at the Tabor Eye Clinic in Davis, where she worked as the office manager.

Beth loved big. Whether it be her husband, her family or friends, her love for all was always evident. She was brave, kind, and graceful. Simply being around, her made ones worries fade. Beth had a way of brightening the room with just her mere presence.

Beth led a very active and busy life. As a very adventurous dare devil, she enjoyed anything that elevated her adrenaline. From bungie jumping to sky diving, to riding dirt bikes, Beth was always up for the excitement. She was funny, quick-witted, and fun to be around. Beth loved pranking or scaring anyone when the opportunity presented itself.

In 2023, Beth was diagnosed with cancer. She approached each day with a very courageous attitude and fought hard to overcome this disease. Although she did not receive the earthly healing she and her loved ones had prayed for, she did win the battle by receiving the ultimate healing of her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Survivors include her husband, Mason Franks; mother, Michelle Roady & husband Rodney; two brothers, Buster Fore & wife Kim, and Josh Fore; her in-laws, Buck & Traci Franks; three brothers-in-law, Tucker Franks & wife Michelle, Brendan Franks, and Alec Franks & wife Jayme; as well as several nieces and nephews.

Services will be held at 10:00AM, on Thursday, October 23rd, at Crossway First Baptist Church, in Sulphur. Pastors Bill Leveridge and Bryan Hetherington will officiate the service. The family will receive friends on Wednesday evening, October 22nd, from 5-6:00PM at Hale's Funeral Home in Davis.
