Deepest Sympathies to the family.
Aunt Sophie was like family to us. I remember her at all the Black family gatherings. She always remembered us at special events and holidays.
A wonderful lady.

Sophie was such a great person. She was an Aunt by marriage to Louis (Don) Gribnitz and Mary Jane. Aunt Sophie always was fun to be with, talk with, when meeting her at any of the family gatherings, which were very few on Vernon's side of the family. Here is to a great Lady, wonderful Wife, may she rest in peace with those that have gone before her.

We were so sad to hear of Sophie's passing. She was a wonderful person who made everyone laugh with her stories! She was a life long friend to my Aunt Irene (Red), who passed just months ago. I'm sure they are up in heaven laughing about all of their adventures together! Our deepest sympathy to her family. She will be missed...
