Franklin Christmas Parade spreads hometown cheer

Thousands came out to Downtown Franklin to watch this year’s Christmas parade featuring Grand Marshal soul singer Quintavious Johnson. The parade was hosted by the Kiwanis Club and Williamson Medical Center to put on the 15th annual event.

Johnson was chosen by Kiwanis Club board member Gary Luffman. Luffman said Johnson was chosen for the way he represented the city and for his character.

A beautiful day made the festivities even more enjoyable.
