Aunt Sophia, I have a picture of me laying in the sun with you in Naples and I got so burned. When we went out in the boat with you it would be all day and we loved it so much. You will also be remembered in these last months here and we thank and love Aunt Marguerita, Uncle George, and MOM for making it happen. Having you here this last Christmas and whenever Mom and Dad brought you over to our home was wonderful. We will always remember your fantastic cooking and baking, but mostly I will remember your last few months and how Jeffrey and Jason made you laugh and my Mom saying not to encourage them to act so silly. All of us will miss you and know that GOD has you wrapped in his arms now. We love you. Scott and Becky

The entire Pancol family has my deepest condolences. Sophie has been in my life since the day I was born; I especially remember her at the Bow and Arrow Drive-In. She leaves a large and loving family and community of friends. God bless you all.

In Memory of My Aunt Sophia:

I have so many beautiful memories of you, Aunt Sophia. Thank you for all you did for me when we I was younger and all the special days filled with fun in the sun and boating in Florida with Uncle Dan. You had such a generous and loving heart and I will never forget how you loved to cook for us. I will always treasure you as a loving Aunt and I wish that I could have seen you more this past year. I was with you, though we could not be together. You have always been in our heart and with our family and we will love you and Uncle Dan dearly forever. Because of all the days I spent with you at Ya Ya's house and all the fun we had laying in the sun, I remembered you with this quote from 'Splendor in the Grass' " Though nothing can bring back the hour of splendor in the grass, glory in the flower. We will grieve not, rather find strength in what remains behind." I love you, Aunt Sophia.

Teddy, Denise got through to us yesterday here at the ranch and we were informed of Sophia's passing. We are so happy that we could visit this May and I thought Sophia was doing well and so happy at Primrose. We would like to remember her as we last visited her. We have to return to Florida with the grandchildren on the 8th. Please convey our condolences to all the family, Tom and Rhonda Baker
