It was such a blessing to have Mrs. Sosa in our life. We lived down the street from her when I was very young, and I fondly remember her consistent kindness and beautiful smile. She was a true friend to our family for 60 years. She has left an amazing legacy and will be truly missed. Please accept my sincere condolences for the loss of an amazing lady. She is clearly in heaven praying for us now.

Mrs, Sosa was a Godsend to me, my family and everyone that knew her. I was truly blessed to have known her, in the many years I spent with her she taught me so much especially how she would say “ it’s important to always treat others as you would want to be treated “ . She loved helping others and she inspired me to do the same and for that I am truly grateful and thankful that I was aloud the time I had with her she helped me be the person I am today. I would always tell her she was an angel left here to do the Lords work and she would just smile at me! I can say now without a doubt she truly was an angel and she has now received her wings! She will truly be missed by my family and I and so many others!
