Celebrating the Life of

Sofia Marchetti

May 27, 1950  —  September 12, 2024

Obituary

“She filled every room with colour, music, and the smell of something baking.”

Sofia Marchetti came from Naples and never stopped bringing a little of it everywhere she went. She danced in the kitchen, hugged like she meant it, and fed anyone who walked through her door. She loved fiercely and forgave quickly. She leaves a husband, four children, and a recipe book no one can quite replicate.
