On September 1, 2020, Frances (“Fran”) Margaret DePaula–Nalbandian–Schroeder passed away due to complications from a stroke she suffered on June 17, 2020. Fran was born on July 24, 1941, in Nutley, New Jersey, to Sam and Henrietta DePaula.

Fran moved from Manassas, Virginia, to Leesburg in 2009 to be near her son, Billy, and his family. She led an active lifestyle while living at the Madison House apartments, befriending everyone in the apartment complex with her spirit of generosity. She continued working at The Barber Shop in Manassas on a part-time basis until the COVID-19 pandemic required the business to close temporarily in March 2020, at which time she opted to retire. Fran was a very loving mother and grandmother, and a devoted friend. She was adored by all who knew her and will be greatly missed.
