Sofia Durkee Obituary
May 13, 2020 God took one of his children home. Sofia Grace Durkee was born on September 3, 2013. She was the sweetest, most affectionate, loveable little girl you would ever meet.

She is survived by Angel Garcia-Ramos (mother); James Durkee (father); Melissa Durkee (sister); Ian Durkee (brother); Alice Ramos (grandmother); Kathy Williams (grandmother); Arnold Ramos Jr. (uncle); Richard Ramos (uncle); Robert Ramos (uncle); Lisa and Jesse Rodriguez (aunt and uncle); Isabella, Leo, Jesse Jr, and Joaquin (cousins); and all members of the Reyes/Casarez family of Perrysburg as well as all members of the Ramos family of Toledo, OH. She has many cousins on all sides of the family that she loved dearly. She loved weekends at her dads spending time with Alaysia, Anaya, and Brianna Mathis and April Hamilton. She was preceded in death by Arnold Ramos Sr. (grandfather); James and Evelyn Mace (great grandparents); Angelita and Anastacio Reyes (great grandparents); Lynda Pepion (great aunt); and Santino Benicio Rodriguez (cousin).
