Sofia Macrina Obituary
Sofia was fond of her older sister, Aurora R., the two shared many treasured "sister times" including reading and watching Disney movies. Sofia, who was named after the Disney princess, loved to visit the magical Walt Disney World. Her favorite Disney movies like Coco, Enchanto, Moana, and Vamperina were often playing at home.
She was fascinated with watching lights while listening to music. She delighted in taking walks, bath time, and getting her toosies rubbed, but really enjoyed anything that included time with mom, dad, and Aurora. She treasured the time with her friends at Whitfield Elementary, where she completed first grade.
Sofia did have a "sassy side" and she would let you know with an eye roll or a side glance. She lived everyday according to her mantra, "making my way, it's an adventure everyday".
The hopes and dreams for Sofia will be cherished by her parents; sister; grandparents, Samuel A. and Lynda Macrina and Phil A. and Rhonda M. Putt; her aunts and uncles, Jennifer L. Auman (Daniel), Timothy S. Macrina (Katie), Mark W. Macrina (Jamie), Bethany A Miller (Christopher), and Trista L. Putt (George Freeling); and her many cousins that she loved, who blessed her life.
