Obituary for Frank Brady Francis C. “Frank” Brady, 65, died on Sunday, January 13, 2019, in his Muhlenberg Township home. Born November 2, 1953, in Rahway, NJ, he was a son of the late James and Catherine (Bradley) Brady. He was married to Kyle (Frankhouser) Brady, and together they celebrated 41 years of marriage.

Frank graduated from St. Joseph High School in Methuchen, NJ and earned his Bachelor’s degree at Drew University, Madison, NJ, where he was an All-American soccer player. After graduation, he was drafted by the Philadelphia Atoms of the North American Soccer League, the precursor to the MLS. He played for the Atoms and the New Jersey Americans, before turning to coaching, both at the collegiate level at Albright College, and later for the Reading Central Catholic girls team.

Frank worked for over 25 years at Redner’s Markets in operations, logistics and transportation. Frank was a self-described simple man, who loved God and his family most of all. He especially enjoyed family vacations in Stone Harbor, his log cabin home in Muhlenberg, and reading just about anything, from history books to the daily newspaper.

He was also a HUGE Green Bay Packers and Boston Celtics fan. In addition to his wife, Frank is survived by their daughters: Kiernan, wife of Joe Melograna, Wyomissing; and Ashleigh, wife of Matt Hoelscher, Shillington; as well as four grandchildren, who were the lights of his life: Aidan and Evelyn Melograna, and Ian and Lauren Hoelscher.
