Of Guelph, passed away on Thursday, November 12th 2020 from complications of metastatic breast cancer, aged 59. Cherished mother of Deanna Sophia Marostica. Predeceased by her parents, Emil and Anne Podrozny. Sophia was passionate about her career as a dietitian and volunteering with community food initiatives, including the Community Food Advisors and Chalmers Community Services Centre. She loved dance in every form, especially ballet, Ukrainian, Hawaiian, belly dance and Regency dance. She also loved to sing and was part of choirs wherever she went. She combined these talents to perform in musicals with Royal City Musical Productions, her final show being Mamma Mia!.
