Frances Alderman Obituary

Frances Jean Alderman, 69 of Daleville, VA went home to be with the Lord February 25, 2026 surrounded by family after a long courageous battle with multiple illnesses. She is survived by her husband of 45 years Henry Alderman, son Brandon (Melissa) Alderman, grandchildren Noah and Emma, parents E.W. and Patsy Taylor and brothers Billy (Trina) Taylor, Tim (Lori) Taylor, and Aaron (Tonya) Taylor. Frances loved to travel, sew, and was very active in her church community. A celebration of life will be held by the family at a later date. Family would love to welcome guests in the coming days and weeks ahead. Frances' kindness, strength, and unwavering love will be deeply missed, but will forever be remembered by all who knew her.
