To Sophie’s family….you won’t know me but I want to tell you how much I enjoyed seeing Zofia whenever I had a sewing job that was over my level of ability. She could do anything no matter how difficult. Years ago to took a winter coat to her which had a bulky wrap collar. I wanted to change it to a tailored notch collar and I bought the coat knowing that she would be able to do that for me. She said she wasn’t sure if it was possible but she would baste it and call me for a fitting. Three days later she called and when I got to her house the coat was all done…beautifully! She was so talented and such a lovely person. I am still wearing the coat and I think of her so often when I put it on. I join you in your feeling of loss.

Greg and Gabe,
Our deepest condolences for your loss of Sophie, from the Konarski Family.
Sophie was a wonderful friend to our mother Kay, especially in her last years without our Dad Frank. Our families were close friends for decades, visiting each other in Goderich and at the farm near Blyth, playing cards, sharing meals, always with lively and loud discussions!
Sadly, Sophie was the last of our parents’ generation. May we all have beautiful and loving memories of them, and know they live on within us. Rest in peace.

To all the family members.
Zofia and Stan were a great couple. I so remember the day they landed in Goderich all those years ago and Stan. worked at our garage until retirement. May they now rest in peace together
