Born in 1927 in Middlesex, N.J., Frances was one of seven children born to Guiseppe Dimura and Angela Darrigo Dimura. Frances worked as a clerk in several Middlesex businesses; among them Thomas Young Orchids, Singer and Margrace. She enjoyed spending time with her large family and after meeting the love of her life, James DeLario, they married in May 1947. She and her husband had one son, James T. DeLario. Frances enjoyed spending as much time as she could with her family, preparing good Italian food, speaking her mind, crocheting and arts and crafts.

She was preceded in death by her husband and son.

Survivors: Frances is survived by her sisters, Bella Loccisano of Denton and Clara Sadowski of New Jersey; daughter-in-law, Teri DeLario; her grandsons and granddaughters-in-law, Michael and Kathryn DeLario and Jonathan and Alicia DeLario; great-grandchildren, Carson, Isaac, Landon and Tatum; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins and dear family members who all brought joy to her life.

Her family is thankful to have known and loved her. It is so hard to say goodbye, but we smile because she was here.
