Frances T. (Venckus) Bradley

Frances T. Bradley, (68) a remarkable woman whose life was defined by love, resilience, and devotion, passed away on February 21, 2024 peacefully surrounded by her loved ones at Sunrise Living. Born on February 25, 1955 and raised in Clifton Heights, Frances moved to Collingdale than to Aston, PA, where she built a life filled with joy and happiness.

Frances was the beloved wife of Brad, her sweetheart, with whom she shared a love story that was truly one for the ages. Their bond was unbreakable, and their love for each other was evident to all who knew them. Together, they brought two wonderful children into the world, Patrick and Krysten. Fran lived her life for both of them from taking them to Disney to the Bahamas to Wildwood, NJ.

Krysten, their beautiful daughter, sadly passed away in 2022 after a brave battle with breast cancer. The loss of Krysten deeply affected Frances, and we know that they are now re-joined in heaven and back up to their antics that are full of laughter and joy.

Frances was also the proud grandmother of five grandsons. She took immense pride in their achievements, going to their games, spending holidays with them, time in Wildwood together, and was always their biggest cheerleader. Her love for her family was boundless, and she leaves behind a legacy of love and kindness.

In addition to her family, Frances was devoted to her work at UPS. Her hard work, dedication, commitment and doing it all with a smile were admired by her colleagues and made instant friends whomever she interacted with.

Frances was known for her smile that could light up a room. Her warmth and generosity touched the lives of many, and she will be remembered for her loving heart. She was a friend to so many and will be deeply missed by all who knew her. Her spirit, her love, and her memory will forever be a part of those she left behind.
