“Aunt Sophie” was a bright, caring, and faith-filled woman who was an inspiration to all with whom she came in contact. Aunt Sophie worked at NJ Transit her entire adult life, retiring in 1987. She enjoyed spending time with and caring for her family. She loved driving, and she particularly loved going out to dinner with friends and family. Aunt Sophie spent many happy years living at Elisabeth Barabash Manor, a Senior Citizens’ apartment in New Providence and she was a member of Our Lady of Peace Church in New Providence while she lived there.
Aunt Sophie loved life and lived it to the fullest. She was always positive and always strengthened by her faith. Hers was a life well lived.
