Fran Jean Federici Obituary (1948 - 2011) - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

FREDERICI, FRAN JEAN, of Cherry Hill, passed away October 3, 2011. Age 63. Beloved sister of Carl (Jean) Federici of San Diego. Loving Aunt of Simone and Nicholas. Dear Cousin of Donna (Edward) Tortu-Rueter and Christopher Tortu. Relatives and friends are invited to her viewing and funeral Wednesday 10:00 - 10:30 AM at St. Teresa of The Infant Jesus Church, 13 East Evesham Rd, Runnemede, NJ 08078. Funeral Mass 10:30 AM. Rite of Committal St. Joseph Cemetery. Fran was a private person. She would be mad at me if she knew I was talking about her. Sorry, Fran Fran was smart, proud, giving and of course, stubborn. She touched the lives of many students with her love of art and art history. She played the piano and painted beautifully. Fran loved to dress up. Even a trip for coffee warranted lipstick and high heels. If Fran had 2 bucks in her purse, she would happily give me one. Life was never about money for Fran. When Fran made up her mind, she was not inclined to change it. Yes, she did it her way. Despite her Italian last name, she was Polish through and through. As time went on, Fran's beautiful smile became more infrequent. Her health had changed and life became more complicated. Be that as it may, I know deep down we loved each other very much. She will always be my beautiful Sister. - Eulogy as read by Carl Federici Harold B. Mulligan Funeral Home T.J. Fluehr, F.D. (215) 637-7373 www.mulliganfuneralhome.com
