Sophie adored traveling with her husband, Frank, whenever possible. She always took pride in cooking and baking for others. She enjoyed the time she spent with her beloved grandchildren, who were truly the apple of her eye. She made sure she was always there for them in all of life's moments, whether big or small. Sophie was known for her big smile and warm laughter. She was a loving wife, mother, sister, grandmother, aunt, and friend to many. She will be greatly missed, forever loved, and never forgotten.
