She was born December 10, 1928 in Paint Rock, TX on the Smith Ranch to William Grundy and Florence Joiner. She married Woodrow Harold Bradley in 1948. They had two sons, Harold Paul and Bruce Bradley. This marriage ended with Woodrow Harold’s passing in 1980. She remarried to Harold Harrison. Frances retired from Ethicon after marrying Harold as they were going to travel but he passed in 1989.
Frances came from a large family – she had 7 brothers and 7 sisters! She was number 13 and always thought that was her lucky number. Family was very important to her. She spent her life taking care of all of them. She thought you were either hungry, or thirsty when you came to visit. She had to feed you and she even tried to feed the Hospice nurses. She always said she wasn’t a good cook but she served a fine table!
Frances was a hard working woman, and had many different jobs throughout her life. She cherished her time at Ethicon most of all.
Frances was preceded in death by both of her husbands, her daughter in law Cheryl Bradley, and all of her siblings.
Frances is survived by her sons, Paul Bradley & wife Lita, and Bruce Bradley. Six grandchildren: William Bradley, Paula Bradley & Randy Dunlap, Brandon Davis, Jennifer Davis, Charles Bradley & wife Brittany, and Shanda Henderson. Eight great grandchildren: James Bradley, Deven Bradley, Sterling Bradley, Calista Davis, Aric Bradley, Nicole Bradley, Kimber Bradley, Zachery Henderson, and Alexis Henderson.
She is survived by numerous nieces and nephews.
