Barbara Fradette Alpert (August 1964 – November 2023) passed away peacefully at her home in Palmetto, Florida, with her loving husband by her side. Born in Bridgeport CT, the daughter of the late Laurier Fradette and Barbara Fradette Andrews, she resided in Fairfield CT for many years. Later, she resided in Milford, CT until relocating to Florida in 2009 with her husband, Dave Alpert Sr.
She was a loving mother and grandmother to her daughters, Stephine N. Comlish and Christina M. Healy (Mike) and grandson Michael George Healy III, who reside in CT. She was a sister to her seven siblings: Deborah Lienemann, Daniel Fradette, Sandra Dube, Michael Fradette, James Fradette, Kimberly Fradette (deceased), and Scott Andrews.
Barbara used writing as an instrument of hope, encouragement and to inspire others. She had written countless devotionals for Christian organizations and Bayside Community Church. She was the author of several books and a six-time contributing author to the popular Chicken Soup for the Soul series.
She has chosen cremation (with no service). Before passing, she took the time to create precious moments with family and friends. In lieu of flowers, you can make a life contribution to her grandson's, Michael George Healy III, trust fund via GoFundMe, which is publicly posted on Barbara's Facebook page.
