Sophia Hargis Eldridge Obituary
Gail was the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Tom Hargis of Brevard, North Carolina and a longtime resident of Brevard.
She leaves behind her devoted husband, Ralph William Ray. She is also survived by her sister, Brigitta Bradley, and her husband, Chuck, of Salmon, Idaho; one nephew, four nieces, nine grand nephews and nieces, and four great-grand nephews and nieces.
In this time of mourning, we find solace in the words of Scripture: "To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord" (2 Corinthians 5:8, KJV). To send flowers to the family or plant a tree in memory of Sophia, please visit our floral store.
