November 22, 2025

FRANCES "FRAN" (BABE) GREENBERG BERNSTEIN: Age 94, of Churchill, passed away peacefully on November 22, 2025.

Born on September 1, she was the daughter of the late Harry and Celia (Farber) Greenberg. Fran grew up in Pittsburgh and graduated from Peabody High School in 1949. Beloved wife of the late Leonard Bernstein; the cherished sister of the late Anne Harris, Rebecca Goldman, and Saul Greenberg, and adored grandmother of the late Lauren Bernstein.

Fran's proudest role was as a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother, but she also worked in various retail businesses over the years. She loved to travel, exploring both the United States and around the world with favorites being Mexico, Israel, Italy, Russia and Singapore - and she shared her experiences through stories that brought her family closer together.

Known for her quick wit and remarkable memory, Fran served as her family's historian, ensuring that traditions, milestones, and connections were never forgotten.

Her greatest joys were her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren. Family and her faith were always at the heart of her life, and she leaves behind a legacy of love, laughter, and storytelling that will be treasured by all who knew her.

She is survived by her sons Gary (Lori) Bernstein and Bill (Debbie) Bernstein; grandchildren Celia (Gene) Livshin, David Bernstein, Ally (Bobby) Chajson, and Alec (Emily) Bernstein; and great-grandchildren Leni, Daphne and Caleb Livshin and Elle Chajson. She is also survived by her dear cousin, Shirley Bernstein, and will be lovingly remembered by her nieces, nephews, grandnieces and grandnephews, cousins, extended family, many friends and her beloved grand puppies - Rooney, Mishka, and Blue.

Services and Interment Private.

Her memory will forever be a blessing to all who knew and loved her.

The family requests that memorial contributions be made to Blood Cancer United.
