Sofia Mascorro

On January 4, 1934 in the small town of Big Springs, TX, a beautiful princess was born into the world by the name of Sofia Rodriguez. On October 29, 1955 in Holland, MI, she married the love of her life, Ruben Mascorro. While on this earth, Sofia did not wear a tiara or the crown of a princess, on November 5, 2022, Sofia received the crown of life as she entered her eternal home in Heaven with Jesus, joining her beloved husband, Ruben, who preceded her on January 14, 2022.

Together Ruben and Sofia created a legacy of love, laughter, and service to others that lives on through their children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and friends. Sofia is survived by son, Rudy (Nancee) Mascorro; daughter, Rose (Nick) Twomey; grandchildren Katrina (Andrew) Holt, Jennifer (Steve) Smit, Nick (Kalli) Mascorro, Stephen (Jane) Twomey, Kristen (Wesley) Worden; and 14 great-grandchildren - each one adored by their "Nana."

Sofia, like her name, was a woman of wisdom. She wisely invested her life in loving and serving her family and friends, and sharing the love of Jesus. She shared this love with anyone willing to listen, through her kindness, generosity, and her fearless proclamation of how the love of Jesus changed her life.

Nana, as her grandchildren and great-grandchildren knew her, simply made the world a better place. Nana believed her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren were the smartest, funniest, and best looking people on the planet. That is all true 😉. While Nana will be deeply missed, her greatest desire is not for us to say, "Good-bye," but to say, "Until we meet again in Heaven."
