Frances Pardi

Frances Pardi, of Ann Arbor, beloved mother, grandmother and great grandmother passed away peacefully on March 11, 2024 at the age of 93. Born on March 28, 1930, in Mosta, Malta, Frances brought warmth, love, and compassion to all who knew her.

At a young age, Frances embarked on a new chapter, immigrating to the United States in pursuit of a better life. Her determination and courage were evident throughout her life’s journey, shaping her into the extraordinary woman she became.

Frances was the heart and soul of her family, and her love knew no bounds. She married Paul in 1960 and together they raised a beautiful family. She is survived by her adoring children who were her pride and joy: Joseph(Luz), Mary(Steve), Rose(Jim) and Michael(Julie), her grandchildren Angela, Melissa, Gia, Nicholas, Leo, Tony, Daniel, Owen and Griffin and great grandchildren Emilio and Lorenzo. Frances's dedication to her family was unwavering, and her love for them was evident in everything she did.

She had a passion for plants and gardening, spending countless hours nurturing her garden and cultivating beauty in her surroundings. Her green thumb was matched only by her kindness and generosity, as she shared her love for plants with friends and neighbors alike.

Visitation will be at Martenson Funeral Home in Trenton on March 21st and a mass celebration of Frances's life will be held at St. Cyprian’s Catholic Church on March 22nd. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made to Heart to Heart Hospice of Troy, Michigan in Frances's memory. http://htohhfoundation.org
