Obituary for Frances "Deedy" Loretta Welch
WELCH, Frances ‘Deedy’ Loretta
Passed away peacefully on September 9, 2019 in her 80th year, surrounded by the loves of her life, her three children, Lisa (Kevin) Karl, Annette (Micheal) Barry, and Sam (Kaywana) Gargarello. She was the most incredible Nanny to her cherished grandchildren Eric, Kayla, Daniel, John, Kiija, Kieran, Aidan, and Luke. Deedy is survived by her adoring younger brothers Dan, Peter, Terry, Michael, and Matthew and numerous loving nieces and nephews. She is happily reunited with her parents Jack and Claire Welch, and brothers John and Tracy. Deedy loved her family and friends. Her example of grace and dignity will live on in all of us. We are thankful to Dr. R. Juergens and her staff, as well as everyone at the Dr. Bob Kemp Hospice. Words cannot express our gratitude for the outpouring of sympathy and support we have received from family and friends.
Visitation will be held at P.X. DERMODY FUNERAL HOME (796 Upper Gage Ave.) on Friday, September 13, 2019 from 2-4pm & 6-9pm. A Funeral Mass will be celebrated at Most Blessed Sacrament Parish (305 E 37th St. Hamilton) on Saturday, September 14, 2019 at 11am. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Cancer Assistance Program or the Dr. Bob Kemp Hospice would be appreciated.
She always said she was the luckiest person in the world, but we are the lucky ones for being loved by her.
