Evangelist Gwendolyn Sue Bradley Frink, 76 was born on October 23, 1948, to Mrs. Ollie Blanch Deloach and was lovingly reared by Mrs. Ollie Deloach and the late Harold Deloach in Register, Georgia.
She was educated in the Bulloch County School System and graduated with the William James High School Class of 1967. She went on to attend Georgia Southern College, where she earned a certificate in bookkeeping. Over the years, she worked faithfully for Franklin Restaurant and Deloach Timber before relocating to Waycross, Georgia.
At an early age, she gave her life to Christ and became a member of New Hope Missionary Baptist Church, later uniting with Spring Hill Missionary Baptist Church. At the time of her passing, she was a devoted member of Faith Outreach Ministries of Waycross, Georgia, under the spiritual leadership of Bishop Frances Fields.

Evangelist Gwen was known for her joyful spirit and her many hobbies. She found joy in fishing, solving puzzles, writing, and collecting costume jewelry. She also loved sewing, singing, reading her Bible, and spending time with her family. A former member of the New Starlight Chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star, she lived a life marked by faith and fellowship. Her favorite song was "I Trust in God," a reflection of the unwavering faith that carried her through life.
