Bradley Fronius Obituary

Fronius Bradley George Fronius, age 52, of Galloway, OH, passed unexpectedly early Thursday morning. Preceded in death by his loving parents David and Beverly Fronius of Columbus. US Army Veteran stationed in Korea. He was a gun enthusiast who enjoyed all aspects of being a true outdoors man; hunting, fishing and riding his 4-wheeler down the Big Darby Creek. He was a die hard Brown's fan and had a passion for cars, especially his '57 Chevy. His warm heart and wonderful smile will be with us always. Survived by his wife and soul mate, Debbie; siblings, Brian (Tammy) Fronius, Susan (Mike) Eric Noe; children, Josh (Nicole) and Jessica Fronius; step-children, Dawn Pulley and Michael Dorgan; grandchildren, Gregory, Tyler, Colton, Ariana and Kiara; many brother and sister-in-law, aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews; and so many friends he held near and dear to his heart, too many to mention by name. He will be deeply missed by his loving dogs, Darby Ann and Kiki Bear. Visitation will be held Wednesday 5-7 p.m. at the SHAW-DAVIS FUNERAL HOMES, Victorian Village Chapel, 34 W. 2nd Ave., Columbus, OH 43201, where a funeral service will follow at 7 p.m. with military honors.

So sorry to hear this for the Fronius family. I was Brad's roommate at Camp Humphreys in Korea from 1985-1986. Just came across some old photos of our time there, and thought to look him up. From the photos, I see he hadn't changed hardly a bit. A lot of good times and laughs with that man. He was but a few years my senior, but at the time very much a guiding "big brother" for this at the time 19 year old kid. Will raise a glass of JB to a couple Johnny Cash and Hank Jr. songs in his honor tonight.

So very sorry for your loss. He was a good man who loved his grandchildren. Deepest regards to the family.

I will miss the good times we had at the car races and swap meets, and hanging out in my auto shop and talking car talk. Those were some great times.

He was a wonderful brother. I will miss his smile and sense of humor. Glad that isn't in physical pain anymore, has a new body and is with our mom and dad. He was a blessing in the short 52 years he was on earth.

I knew the Froniuses at birth, Bev was my brother's godmother & she and Dave were my parents' best friends and neighbors. Brad & Brian were the cool older brothers, while Susan and I were the small pests. So very sad to hear of Brad's early departure. I know he has joined his wonderful parents in God's Kingdom. My love and deepest sympathy to Debbie, Susan, Brian, and all his loved ones. May you find peace in your memories of the good times together.

Dearest Cousin Brad, I will miss you so much but I understand that the pain is gone and for that alone, I can let you go. But you have to understand also, that you took a part of my heart with you and that makes me hurt. I have every letter, I never forgot our friendship beyond our being just cousins. I will always love you, goodbye for now.
