Sofia Volpe Obituary

Visit the Buonfiglio Funeral Home website to view the full obituary.

Sofia Volpe (Troisi), 93, of Revere, formerly of San Sossio Baronia in the Province of Avellino, Italy, passed away surrounded by her loving family. She was a woman of quiet strength, deep devotion to her family, and a proud Italian heritage that remained close to her heart throughout her life.

Born on January 1, 1933, in San Sossio Baronia, Sofia carried with her the traditions, faith, and resilience of her hometown when she later settled in Revere, Massachusetts, where she built a beautiful life centered on family.

Sofia worked for many years as a talented seamstress in the clothing industry and eventually rose to the position of forewoman. She took great pride in her work and was known for her steady hands, attention to detail, and strong work ethic. Sewing was more than a job to her — it was a skill she carried with dignity and dedication.

She was the beloved wife of the late Joseph Volpe, with whom she shared many devoted years of marriage until his passing in 2022. She was the devoted mother of Linda Kincaid and her husband John of North Andover, Josephine “Pina” Jones and her husband Brad of Sudbury, and Diana Volpe of Malden. She was the adored grandmother of Tommy Kincaid of North Andover, Benjamin Kincaid of Charlestown, and Gabrielle Jones of Sudbury.

Sofia was the cherished daughter of the late Romeo and Giuseppa Troisi. She is remembered for her strength, her love of family gatherings, her faith, and the pride she took in her children and grandchildren. Her home was always a place of warmth, good food, and welcome, as she was a great cook who prepared her meals with great love and joy.

Funeral from the Paul Buonfiglio Funeral Home on Saturday, February 28, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 10:30 AM, followed by a Funeral Mass at St. Anthony’s Church, Revere, at 11:00 AM. Entombment will follow at Holy Cross Mausoleum. Family and friends are kindly invited to attend.

Sofia’s love and strength will remain in the hearts of those who knew her.
