Frances Mahaffey

Frances, or “Gammy” as she was called by family and loved ones, was easily described by all her grandchildren by one word, “colorful,” and she was. Gammy, who never knew a stranger, would talk to anyone about anything and everything. She was a storyteller. Gammy had a hoot of a story about each and every person she cared for. It is clear to see through her stories that she was always surrounded by love. The joy brought to all the lives Gammy has touched will never be forgotten.

Frances is preceded in death by her father and mother, W.H. Walker and Frances Hazel Walker, her son, James “Jimmy” Brady, daughter Beverly Ann Brady, and granddaughter Kelly Francis Depew. She is survived by her son Stephen Mahaffey, daughter-in-law Becky Mahaffey, daughters Debbie Wright and Gayle Lilley, and son-in-laws Mark Wright and Jerry Lilley; grandchildren Randy Seidenberger, John Mahaffey and fiancée Megan Garcia, Stephen Depew, Kevin Depew, and wife Erin, Terry Seidenberger and wife Victoria, Kyle Mahaffey and wife Amy, Ryan Mahaffey, and Jessica, Christopher, and McKenna Wright; great-grandchildren Courtney and Aiden Seidenberger, Elissa and Olivia Mahaffey, Jayce Lilley, and Avery Depew.
