Frances M Bullara

BULLARA, Frances, 96, of Tampa passed away February 8, 2022. With sadness in our hearts, our family mourns the passing of our mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She was born in Tampa on November 2, 1925 and graduated from Plant High School. She worked at LM Berry in management for 45 years. She was a member of Christ the King Catholic Church and the Italian Cultural Club. She was an avid fan of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Rays. However, nothing made her happier than spending time with her family, especially her three grandchildren and five great-grandchildren who loved their Nani so much.

Preceded in death are her parents Gina and John Calderoni, husband Paul Bullara; sister and brother-in-law Nancy and Tony Castellano; brother and sister-in-law Pat and Aida Calderoni; brother Joe Calderoni; son-in-law Barry Williams; Brother-in-laws and sister-in-laws James and Hazel Bullara, Joe and Violet Bullara and Sam and Carmen Bullara.

Frances is survived by her daughter Stella Williams; son Paul (Kathy) Bullara; grandchildren Lauren (Curtis) Bliss, Kacy (Jon) Chilton and Craig (Rachel) Bullara; great-grandchildren Addison, Ryder, Brock, Aster and Julia; godchildren Carol McNeill, Mary Frances Ledo, Toni Lynn Maceovsky, Patti Calderoni and Vincent Fumea; and many loving nieces, nephews and friends.

A funeral mass will be offered for the repose of her soul at Christ the King Catholic Church on Tuesday, February 22 at 10:30am with a visitation @ 9:30am and an interment to follow in Garden of Memories. Pallbearers include Craig Bullara, Sam Bullara, Joe Bullara, Robert Castellano, Steve Calderoni, Curtis Bliss, Jon Chilton and David Cayo. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Jesuit High School or your favorite charity in memory of Frances Bullara.

The family would like to give a heartfelt thanks to the staff and caregivers at Angels Senior Living The Lodge for the love and care they gave our mom.
