Sofia McKenna Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jun. 19, 2018.
North Stonington - Sofia Michelle McKenna, 7-3-1996. "Lost But Not Forgotten"

Although Sofia is still missing, the family would like to add a follow-up to the original obituary.

Sofia was a loving, kind, smart, sophisticated, feisty young woman who lived life to the fullest. She graduated from massage therapy school and was a licensed massage therapist. Her true passion was to love and help people.

She is survived by her father Jeff McKenna of Pawcatuck, mother Michelle Smith of North Stonington, brother Justin McKenna of Pawcatuck, sister Gracie Mae Carroll (her best friend, who she loved more than anything), grandfather John Smith of Las Vegas, Calif., and stepgrandmother Gina Smith of Florida (who truly helped lead her to the Lord). She is preceeded in death by her beloved grandmother Sharon McKenna/Mattson. Sofia idolized her NuuNuu and was pursuing a career in nursing to honor her.

Sofia is deeply missed by her father "daddy doo" and her brother "JJ," but they know her soul is where it belongs in heaven. The Lord took her home early because he needed her loving spirt.

For Sofia:

Our Father, Who art in Heaven hallowed be thy name; Thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

AMEN

I will always remember how sweet, honest, and fun Sofia was and how much great memories I had with her over the summer at the Inn. She was a true joy to work with and I loved her as a person. May she find her inner peace and joy and continue to grow in heaven.
