Sofia Araceli Vasquez
February 7, 1999 — June 9, 2016
Our beloved Sofia Araceli Vasquez, 17, returned home to the loving arms of her heavenly father on June 9th, 2016.
Sofia was born February 7, 1999 in Bountiful, Utah. She is the 3rd of seven children born to Carlos Adolfo Vasquez Jr and Lucy Jane Tua’one Vasquez.
Sofia was full of life and brought joy to everyone that she encountered. She is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and has served in various capacities in Young Women’s. Sofia was currently serving as the Laurel class president.
She excelled in basketball and academics and received multiple awards. Sofia was expected to receive her Associates degree when she graduated from Davis High school and expected to have her best year yet in basketball. She loved being a team member.
Sofia loved literature, documentaries, food, feminism, hair and makeup, equal rights, 1990s hip hop and boy bands. She was tenaciously competitive but always kind. She had a profound effect on her friends and family whom she loved dearly. Her passing has left a pronounced impression on the entire community. We all miss our Sofie.
Sofia is survived by her parents, her siblings Kasinga “Kassi”, Carlos “Charlie”, Olivia, Otilia “Tilly”, Lila Lynn and Lave, Grandpa Carlos and Grandma Sonia Vasquez, Grandpa Lave and Gma Lynn Tua’one. Sofia has countless aunts, uncles, cousins and friends that will miss her dearly.
