Published by Legacy Remembers from Oct. 7 to Oct. 8, 2013.
COLLINGS, Sophie Kris (Alexiou) - Passed away peacefully with her boys at her side on October 4, 2013 after a courageous battle. Beloved wife of David, proud mother of Ryan, Steven and Cristopher, predeceased by her father William and survived by her loving mother Sheila. Cherished sister of James (Yvonne) and her nieces and nephews Ashleigh, Luke, Michael, Ava, Taylor, Lindsay, great-niece Alice and her puppy Bailey (who never left her side). Her beauty, spirit and kind heart will be sadly missed by a multitude of family and friends. Born and raised in Toronto, Ontario she devoted her life to her family, raising three fine young gentlemen. She took great pleasure and pride in their successes and accomplishments. It was all about family to Sophie and she desperately fought to spend another day with her mother and boys. Special thanks go out for the compassionate care at the Southlake Regional Hospital in Newmarket. Family and friends will be received at the Highland Funeral Home, 10 Cachet Woods Court, Markham, Ontario, on Wednesday, October 9th from 2 - 9 p.m. A funeral service will be held at St. Clement of Ohrid Cathedral, 76 Overlea Boulevard, Toronto, on Thursday, October 10th at 10 a.m. Interment at Pine Hills Cemetery in Scarborough to follow.

So sorry to hear about Sophie. She was so proud of her boys and such an anchor in their lives. We enjoyed our days with her at the hockey games and away tournaments. She was a lot of fun and game for anything. Sophie will be greatly missed by all who she touched in her short life. JoAnne and Archie McLachlan

Your mother was an amazing person and she will be truly missed. No words can express my sadness for you all. I will remember her with a smile on her face and how she always had kind words upon meeting at each and every school function where our paths always crossed. Heaven is now blessed with a new angel to watch over you all each and every day.
