It was such a tragedy losing such a young, smart, beautiful young lady. However the love that I seen from so many for Sophie at her services made my heart happy. She didnt live nearly long enough but she touched many hearts while she was here and I am so thankful for that. I wish I knew her better than I did but what I do know is she was a very special soul who would do anything for anyone and the world is a lesser place without her shine. She is and always will be greatly missed.

My heart aches for your family; she was such a pretty girl, what a shame that she had to leave this earth so soon. May she rest in the arms of God, who will now take care of her. R.I.P.
