A member of St. George Greek Orthodox Church in St. Paul, MN, and also St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Mission in Eau Claire, WI.  Sophia worked in the family’s business, Meadowview Farms Hatchery.  She later owned and ran Sophia’s Pancake House, Sophia’s Antiques, and was a representative for Mary Kay Cosmetics.  Sophia also managed the family real estate business, Pathos Duplex Company, for many years.    

Sophia loved and was skilled at needle-point and crocheting and made beautiful gifts for her family and friends.  In her younger years, she was a member of 4-H and was very proud to have received the good citizenship award from the Daughters of the American Revolution.

Sophia had a green thumb and had a beautiful garden enjoyed by all.  Sophia was a treasured daughter, sister, friend, and aunt, treating each of her nieces and nephews and her godchildren as her own.  She was a special guest at every holiday, greeting everyone with her brilliant smile and biggest hugs.

Sophia was generous with her time, volunteering at church and in other areas, and she was always willing to lend a hand to support her family and friends.  She will be dearly missed.
