Sofia Avelor

With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Sofia Avelor on March 8, 2021. She was loving and devoted, mother, Nana, and "Bisa" great grandmother, and friend to all whose lives she touched. Sofia Avelor passed away peacefully at home at the age of 83. She was born on September 18, 1937. And was the loving mother of Ana Bachtell and Arnoldo Avelar. She was a proud "Nana" to Paige Screen and a "Bisa" great grandmother to Timothy Malone Screen III and Wolfgang Gabriel Screen. She welcomed with open arms anyone that entered her home as if she was their mother. She was truly an angel.    Some of her happiest times were playing bunco, visiting with friends and, cooking for large family gatherings at home. Most of all, she loved her family and faith. She will be dearly missed and will live forever in our hearts as we remember this beautiful, friendly, funny, and smiling lady.  The family would like to express their appreciation to the staff of Notre Dame Hospice, especially to Pam and Eric.
